No credit card required
Browse credit cards from a variety of issuers to see if there's a better card for you.
I just discovered a monthly charge for ATHOMEREWARDS (telephone 800-511-0046) on my credit card. A $1 charge and a $13.95 charge. If you use TransUnion's TrueCredit, or if you ever bought your credit report or anything from TransUnion, check your credit card statements carefully and immediately.
If you got stung, call and cancel right away, ask for a refund for all the charges, get a corporate address, get a rep's name and confirmation number. Go to your bank or call your CCC, and file a fraud report or whatever they wanna call it. Be persistent.
Apparently, in signing up for TransUnion's TrueCredit, they sold my wife's info and a membership to a company called ATHOMEREWARDS. Apparently there are several websites which are all similar, and I'm not sure which one is the real one. They didn't sting me, only my wife. Not sure why. We both signed up for TC about the same time. Don't know what was different.
Here's the corporate address they gave me:
9500 W Dodge Road
Omaha, NE 68114
800-511-0046
I called to cancel, and they are refunding last 2 months. Going over to the bank and filing a fraud report, or whatever the heck they call it. After that, BBB, FTC, Washington state AG (where I am), Nebraska state AG (where they are), and I'm not sure who else is gonna be hearing from me. Both TU and ATHOMEREWARDS are gonna get talked about.
I made an inquiry with the Nebraska Secretary of State's office to find out whether they are licensing and/or registered to do business in Nebraska. Couldn't find anything on them at BBB, but the BBB website appears to be flaking out right now.
TU took the bull by the horns on this one.
