I was on a website and “Free Credit Report” caught my eye. A lot of times these kind of words are just gimmicks, ways of getting us onto their site, ways for different companies to capture and spam our email. YUK!
I hate this. Well, I looked into it more and apparently Quicken is testing this resource. You know Quicken, the company that created the financial accounting software.
Quizzle is a new website that I’ve been seeing more and more. Its purpose is to give us consumers a simple, better understanding of their home & money. They also have a blog that has news, tips & tricks for home & money management.
What I didn’t like is that I think the *free credit score* is not a true one from the credit reporting agencies. I think it’s an estimate from the criteria that they chose. The score isn’t a FICO score, but itis free and gives you a general guideline of where your creditworthiness may stand.
This is misleading to me.
Ummm…it might be a good resource but I think the way the company is advertising to you and leading you, it’s not what I truly am seeking but it MAY have other information that might benefit me.
Check it out for yourself, but don’t always believe what you read. Research!
