Stop Credit Card Offers

You can stop receiving credit card offers in the mail! It's really easy to do - just phone 1-888-567-8688 and follow the prompts and provide the requested information including Social Security number, date of birth, etc.

Do this for every adult member of your household, including college students. Your "opt-out" status will be sent to each of the four credit bureaus (Equifax, Experian, TransUnion and Innovis). In four to six weeks, you will reduce the number of these kinds of offers.

Protect your identity, save a tree and make your postal carrier's life easier, too!
