      Free scam artists is what they are! Never again will I apply to rent anywhere that uses this place to get a credit score! They could have used my karma credit, but insisted that I pay just 1 dollar to get the exact same score that I already know from karma! The customer service is horrible and tell you that your card was charged 1 minute before the cancelation. 1 minute to scam someone out of $39.90! FreeCrookScammers.com is what they should be named!

      I live in New Hampshire, I was asked to use this service when I went to apply for an apartment. I was told by the landlord it only costs $1. I told them I have Credit Karma and can share my credit score that way. They still insisted. So okay $1, nope first they charged me $1 then they attempted to hit my account for $39.90 which I had blocked in time. By the way the credit karma score was the exact same as the one I paid for. About a two months later these ___ charged my account $39.90. I called Free Credit Score.com or should I say Con artists. And all you get is a computer voice, no live person which after cancellation I asked it to refund I got hung up on!!!! I will badmouth them at every turn! I’m a 100% disabled war veteran.

      My name is Janet **. I am going through hell with Discover charge card for having charge me over $600 in my credit score. It’s my credit score. No one in the world can get my credit score except me. No one can legally sell me my credit score because they can’t get it, even the credit card companies when they do a background credit check on you to find out how you pay your bills do you have any foreclosures, bankruptcies? They still do not have access to your actual credit score so any company is illegitimate. They are selling you air and if for some reason they pop up in your email address that is not your fault because these scammers have new programs that already have you signed up for having bought this fraudulent credit score and then it pops away and you don’t see it and they can do get your credit cards and you will not have given credit Information to anybody.

      These are scammers. They are **. They are ** from India. They are very smart and all they do is sit a little rooms with a cell phone computer and they think about ways to fleece American citizens. Seniors particularly are victims of this kind of fraud. It’s not a swindle because you don’t engage in them in any way. It’s fraud because you have no idea that it’s happening, it’s entrapment and unfortunately, the credit card companies like Discover even though they know when they see something like this comes up in their customer's billing they will not inform the customer. They will not red flag it, and they will only be combative against you in trying to get the funds reversed back into your account. By the credit card companies like Discover bracing this kind of Internet fraud perpetrated on their customers they encourage more illegal people to steal from the Internet. This is a crime. This is a painful destructive crime.

      There are actually companies now who have been set up to teach different charge card Businesses discover how to not do a chargeback for their customers and to be able to keep all funds that have been perpetrated in this fraud. It teaches the people who work in the fraud department that should be helping you how to keep the fraud going and keep the money that they filtered through their charge card. A complaint in with Google to have view free.com free credit score totally fraudulent a bunch of babbling **, who give out a false building address in a false city. I’ve had a police investigation done on it. The police investigation came back, writing up the fact that this is nothing but fraud, and still Discover does not return my money. They’re taking it out of a senior citizen's pocket so this company has no shame. But under the strongest that I can give you is read your bank account statements every month whether you like it or not.

      Whether you have to have a magnifying glass or not because I do. I’ve got bad eyesight. I have crippled fingers, all life gets you down and sometimes you just paid the bill because that’s what you do. You’re a good citizen and you paid the bill but yet there are so many fraudulent people out there is pervasive and you can be minding your own business. You can be a good citizen. You can let other people step in line in front of you at the grocery store because maybe you’ve got a whole cart full of groceries and maybe that they’re standing there just trying to buy a box of chicken on their lunch break and you say, "Go ahead of me come on, I got time." I’m retired. What I don’t have is money to pay to Discover for fraudulent charges. Neither do you. Don’t ever give up. Read this advice that I’m giving to you.

      Access the governmental agencies that are available to us. The Consumer Finance Department maybe AARP to help seniors drive through this confusing entrapment of losing their money and not having any product, this is a fraud. Nobody can sell you your credit score because they physically can’t get it so they can’t tangibly sell you anything and the charge card companies personally that I know of. Discover are compliant with the thieves so keep that in mind. Discover will never be your friend. Discover changed. It’s ethics. It’s morals.

      Years ago, I would never. Discover as your card told me. "Oh yeah we could’ve seen that fraud but we do have credit monitoring, but that is an extra charge." It used to be that Discover was the go to card but you learn once you get your fingers run over by the train and that’s the only way you learn so good luck to everybody out there who’s getting Your Internet information breached and then insult to injury salt in the wound you get your charge card company to literally say you’re the one at fault and you’re not. This is not your fault and remember if you were born in the 50s, in the 60s, in the 70s, we didn’t grow up with computers. So good luck to you. Janet **

      If the 99.9% of 1-Star reviews isn't enough to convince you, I don't know how another review will. The one reviewer that gives this company 5 stars must work for them. The website says "FREE Credit Scores" and requires that you enter very personal information not needed for checking credit scores. I have an Intuit Mint account and it shows your credit score without even entering these things. When you get near the end, you are forced to enter a credit card and pay for this "FREE" service. Hey, guys, "FREE" means you don't pay. By requiring someone to pay sort of negates the free part.

      When reviewing my credit score online at FreeCreditScore.com I was asked to enter credit card information to charge a nominal one dollar fee to view where my report despite the service advertising that the reports are free. It was explained that this was done so to verify identity much like the post office does when you forward your address. I wasn’t concerned about the dollar fee. I’ll go with fries and a month later my credit card was charged a subscription fee of $39.90. I couldn’t remember at the time where I had obtained my free credit scores nor was there information as to what company to contact on my credit card. That said I advise my bank and cancel my credit card. This happened in June 22. I just recently was able to locate the company which online it’s listed as CRDRPT.com.

      I spoke with Champagne a customer service representative who assured me she would assist me. She stated that they have been attempting to charge my card since then and only today will cancel services. She said that since the charge with more than three months old they would not honor my request for a refund. She said that the disclaimer was more than clear in stating that I was subscribing to a service and that I should’ve read the fine print. This is a scam from the very get-go as they advertised the service hours free credit score. There’s nothing free about it. Even though I’ve never use the service and requested a refund of $39.90 the company denied refunding me that money and publishing this review to advise other unsuspecting individuals that there was nothing free about FreeCreditScore.com or the alias of CRDRPT.com.

      THE GOOD: 1.Full report and score - Credit score and full reports for all three credit agencies were available via html and PDF files. The PDFs were easy to attach to email and send to a couple property managers which I considered renting from. 2.Low up-front cost - Initial charge is just $1 as advertised, no other hidden fees attached. Some businesses will charge applicants to run a credit check like when you apply for rental property. 3.No "Inquiry" on credit report - This works really well with entities that will accept applicant's credit history from a third-party instead of that entity charging applicant $10-$50 to use their own. This also saves the applicant an "inquiry" from appearing on their credit report since any request consumers make for their own reports are not considered an "inquiry."

      THE BAD: 1.No online cancellation - You must call to cancel. Phone process took less than 10 minutes total for cancel. It's only couple minutes waiting until connected to rep. Rep must read other sales scripts to process your cancellation. It takes about 5 minutes total, just endure it and don't rush them as it only prolongs the process. Make certain to emphasize CANCELLATION. Reps are trained to simply "extend current membership for one additional month at no cost" which means you will still pay 2 months after signing up. Do not say OK to this part of their script and reaffirm your request to cancel. My cancellation email was received in couple minutes.

      2.Unwanted contact - Be prepared for actual calls and texts to whatever phone number you provide when signing up. Text STOP to discontinue texts. Don't worry, they will text you very soon after you sign up. FreeCreditScore is proactive in helping you with any questions and will seek you out first to see if there's anything they can do to help. 3.Vantage Score 3.0 used for credit score - Not many businesses use VantageScore model. FICO model is more widely used. This is minor issue because many lenders offer free score using FICO like Discover, American Express, and Wells Fargo to name a few.

The jerk guy verified my info, which was fine. Then he kept offering this and that and that and this and I told him I wanted no offers, just cancel. He kept on, I was firm. He kept on, said "I am just doing my job" so I told him his job was to fulfill my cancellation request and nothing more. Still, he kept offering this and that then said I'd signed up for all kinds of crap from grocery coupons to ID theft protection and so on. He kept on rambling.

      FINALLY after about 7 minutes of this I got a cancellation number but I still don't feel safe so I am contacting my credit card company and telling them that other than the $1.00, nothing from this company is to be honored with payment because I owe them nothing.

      I foolishly took their trail to check their scores against the credits score I have with Credit Karma which I really like and they are free. After checking I cancelled the account with FreeCreditScore. What a joke. People always take the cancellation # down and put in notes or someplace on your computer where you put such things. This company must pull this a lot because I see the same complaint over and over again on the ConsumerAffairs site about them.

      They didn't cancel my account and continued to charge $29.95 for 3 more months until I was looking at my account and noticed the charges. I called them and they had a hard time finding me in their system. When they finally did I then asked why my account wasn't canceled back in Feb when I foolishly signed up and canceled but didn't take the confirmation # down when it was given to me. He said he doesn't see any cancellation on this account. So I told him I remember calling and cancelling the same day right after I compared my score with Credit Karma and their scores. I went around and around with him, the whole time with him trying to up sell offering discounts if I stayed. I told him I don't do business with thieves.

      I contacted my credit card company and disputed the charges. I suggest you do the same. I'll never do a 7-day trial again. They are always some kind of hassle to stop the charges after. There are too many scams on the WWW that we get involved with because it looks good and maybe benefit by it but they are rip-offs.

      Signed in for a "ONE TIME" credit check for $1 to review my credit history and of course this was before I was aware of "Credit Karma" and in signing up for that deal was unaware that I was IN THE SMALL PRINT agreeing to pay $29 EVERY MONTH FOR CREDIT MONITORING and wow try to cancel the account and that is only the beginning as you can NOT EMAIL THEM TO COMPLAIN or cancel the account.

      Must call on the phone and talk to an employee and answer 100 questions to cancel and before can cancel he or she needs to VERIFY you and your account and after an hour on the phone you are finally canceled. After the phone clerk tells you "SORRY WE ARE NOT ALLOWED TO WRITE ANYTHING DOWN." OMG. Please do not sign up for any of their services as you may have purchased around the world ticket for $3999 before you realize what you have done. Should be TAKEN TO THE CLEANERS AND REMOVED FROM DOING BUSINESS ONLINE PERIOD. Criminals.

      I signed up in a hurry to get a fast credit report! MISTAKE!! Immediately after doing it and realizing that there was no way to delete my card info or to cancel the subscription without calling, I knew something was up. I haven't even had the account for 30 minutes and already have multiple charges. I'm terrified because I gave them my SS# over the phone and finally hung up whenever they started asking for my debit card number over the phone and personal questions. Unfortunately my bank just closed for the day! I need to get up there first thing in the morning and hope they haven't cleaned me out. DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY!!!

      I can confirm that this site is as bad as the other poor reviews. I got online and created my $1 trial account because we had an emergency need to verify some credit information. I was aware it was a trial. When I first logged in and got my score, I looked for the easy way to cancel the trial. I emailed the company hoping to get some direction on this but never received a response. There is no instruction on the site under your profile or Membership on how to cancel. I eventually was charged the monthly fee and complained instantly. The company refused to do anything about it and kept telling me the membership profile indicated to contact them to cancel, yet it does not.

      On 1/7/16 I attempted to get free credit report as advertised. Upon completing all necessary sign in options for Your PLUS Score and answering all questions for identity check, I then received error that they could not process my request. I checked my email and did receive 2 emails one from Experian and one from FreeCreditScore (1 minute apart). 1 that account was updated and 1 with a thank you for ordering PLUS Score. I attempted to login and received the message that had invalid credentials. I then called 1-877-284-7942 and the rep indicated that the system was updating and I should receive an email with more login information. He also reset my password and that I would also get an email with temporary password.

      After a few minutes I did receive the email with temporary password. I then attempted to login and received the same error with credentials. Clicked on the NEED HELP SIGNING IN? for further assistance and now system shows that I do not exist on their system. Called again and rep this time told me to go through EXPERIAN site and I will need a credit card for $1 charge and I will get a free credit score and report. I then said "no thank you" and hanged up. Wow this is really a scam! I a wondering why the FEDS are not taking any action on this.

      DO NOT USE THIS SITE! I followed the large blue buttons and the misleading marketing that says FREE CREDIT SCORE and even the false advertising of www.freecreditscore.com. I agreed to pay $1 to get my credit report and credit score and sure enough, 8-days later I get a $21.95 charge on my debit card that they refuse to reimburse. Of course, I now see that in TINY writing, it says on the website "you have a free 7-day membership and you must call back to cancel within 7 days or you will be billed."

      Of course the text is extremely tiny and there are GIANT BLUE and ORANGE BUTTONS that say FREE and ONLY $1. Not to mention the site is called "www.freecreditscore.com." Someone should start a huge class action lawsuit against this company. Talk about false and misleading marketing to steal $22 in 8 days from anyone who wants a "free score." They refuse to give you your money back even if you immediately call to fix it. DO NOT USE THIS SITE. I would much rather them just say "it costs you $20 to get a credit report." At least that way they aren't misleading you.
