Mannerheim Posted March 5, 2005 Report Share Posted March 5, 2005 I recently placed a fraud alert with the bureaus. I'm using Privacy Guard just fine, but cannot access Myfico to get my FICO scores.Any ideas?THANKS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miracle Posted March 5, 2005 Report Share Posted March 5, 2005 You can't access Myfico scores with fraud alerts. You will have to wait until the fraud alerts come off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mannerheim Posted March 5, 2005 Author Report Share Posted March 5, 2005 How quickly do you think I can have the fraud alerts removed. I was able to get many inquiries deleted, and the bureaus told me that as a result, they were placing an extended fraud alert for 7 months.Do I just have to send in a written request with DL, and they come off immediately?Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miracle Posted March 5, 2005 Report Share Posted March 5, 2005 I believe you can send a letter with verification of who you are (DL, utility bill) and request the alert be removed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Miracle is right you can send a request in writing to have the initial alert removed. Consider this though, is it worth it just to access your Fico's from myfico? you can get one Fico from Equifax. Also if I were still disputing and hammering away, I might leave the fraud alert on and use as a lever in the repair process. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
