I was about to go ballistic myself, because logging in the see my credit report took me to a shopping discount page. I had signed up for a trial period of 7 days. And THEN I checked my confirming email again and saw that there were two different account numbers. The more prominent one took me to the shopping pages, where one option was to see my credit score and where I was offered a 20% discount to review it -this, when I thought I had just signed up for that very purpose (a one dollar, 7 day trial). Arggghhh.. So I searched Google for info about 123 Privacy Matters and sho-nuff, there is was on the RIP OFF report. Argghhhh again! But the rip-off was too blatant, too fast, so I checked my confirming email and found ANOTHER account number -not shown as prominently as the other. And that account number took me to a different set of pages, where all the right questions appeared -SSN, previous accounts held, previous addresses, etc. And these pages did, indeed, show me the big 3 reports -as I had signed up for. Bottom line: the 123 Privacy Matters site has a lot of misdirection and camouflage, 4 sure, which is reason enough to stay away; and I am canceling pronto. But what they hey! I got paid $10 for trying them out so all is not lost. Anyway, check your conforming email CAREFULLY for the "other" number, before going off the edge.
