Texans can now Freeze their Credit Reports

 
Finally. I thought it was crazy that you first had to be a victim of identity theft in order to be able to freeze your report. I guess they came to their senses.

Re: Texans can now Freeze their Credit Reports

Now the question is if I freeze my credit can myfico still monitor my credit?

Good question. From TC you can freeze your Transunion CR  but they are still able to pull it because you made the request. I don't about myfico. Hope somebody more knowledgeable will answer.

Yes.  I had a credit freeze in place before I got ScoreWatch.  When I ordered SW, I had to "thaw" the freeze for 3 days in order to order the product.  If you already have ScoreWatch (the myFICO product), I don't know what will happen if you put the big chill on.  I don't think it would affect it.
 
Call myFICO and ask, although you might have to try several CSRs to find one who even knows what a credit freeze is.
 
Please let us know the outcome!
