Opt Out of Credit Card Offers
Receiving several credit card offers in the mail every week is definitely annoying, but it can also expose you to potential identity theft. There is an easy way to opt out of receiving these offers by simply going to the official opt-out website, www.optoutprescreen.com, or by calling them directly at 1-888-5-optout (1-888-567-8688).
Through this website, you may request to:
- Opt-Out from receiving firm offers for 5 years
- Opt-Out from receiving firm offers permanently
- Opt-In and begin receiving firm offers. This option is for consumers who have previously completed a request to Opt-Out.
