Prevent unauthorized access to your credit, bank and utility accounts with security freeze​

    Do you remember the experience of applying for a credit card? A potential creditor will ask for your government ID and other information to access your credit profile. Without this, creditors typically won’t allow you to open a new credit card. A security freeze service prevents the opening of new credit, bank, and utility accounts in your name.​
