Opting out of Credit Card Offers

You have the ability to opt out of credit card offers that you receive in the mail or over the phone.  If it seems like your mail box is over-flowing with offers of pre-approved credit, you probably resent the excess mail and worry about someone stealing the information.  If you would like to put a stop to all the offers, you can use the suggestions below.

There are many ways to opt out of credit card offers, such as:

Calling 1-888-5-OPTOUT (1-888-567-8688) to have your name removed from direct marketing lists. You can do this online at OptOutPreScreen.com, which is the official consumer credit reporting industry opt-out website.
