Do you want to eliminate the junk mail that crams your mailbox each day?
Many consumers don't realize it but a large portion of the junk mail that is received on a daily basis can be stopped. The unwanted credit card offers, insurance offers, mortgage offers and general junk mail that you receive is the result of the credit bureaus selling your information to whomever is willing to pay for it.
There is a quick and easy way to eliminate this unwanted junk mail. I direct my customers to visit www.optoutprescreen.com. Junk mail is optional but unless you request not to receive it, you will. The three credit bureaus Equifax, TransUnion and Experian are all required by the federal government to participate in this opt out process. By filling out this request online you will automatically be exempt from junk mail for a period of 5 years. The site also has an option that allows you to mail in your request as well. A mailed request permanently opts you out from receiving junk mail.
I did this opt out option a few years ago myself and the amount of junk mail I receive has dramatically decreased.
