IDES debit cards

By Terry Savage on July 23, 2020 | Wild Card

Several of your responses say to check credit reports for new bank accounts. I just pulled up reports from all three agencies but none of the reports shows bank accounts, just credit accounts loans mortgages.

Terry Says

No, your credit report doesn’t show bank accounts. But I said “look for inquiries” from a bank, wihch is often a prelude to opening a new account. Many people have found unknown online accounts opened in their name.
But DO FREEZE YOUR CREDIT REPORT at each bureau t0 prevent new accounts from being opened.
