How to get removed

  1. Open Submit an Opt-Out / Limitation Request.
  2. Enter your name and contact details, and leave SSN and date of birth blank.
  3. Select every opt-out and limitation option that applies.
  4. Review and submit; the phone alternative is 866-310-8783.

This is the marketing and data-sale opt-out, not the credit file. Their form makes SSN and date of birth OPTIONAL, so you do not have to hand them over.

This one does not re-acquire, so a completed removal holds. Most do not: the holders that buy public records re-buy them about every four months, which is why the rest of this register is re-checked rather than ticked off.

Opt-out processes change. If a step no longer matches what you see, tell us and we’ll update it.
