Active Duty Alerts on your Credit Report The amendments to the Fair Credit Reporting Act that were passed in December of 2003 allow for some special protections to active duty military personnel, that should be implemented by the end of 2004.

  • You (or someone representing you) can request that credit reports and credit scores indicate you are on active duty. This will help to prevent identity theft while you are overseas.
  • You can also prevent your name from being included on lists for unsolicited telephone and mail offers of credit and insurance for a 2 year period.
  • Your request for the Active Duty Alert can be made to any of the credit reporting agencies. It is the agency's responsibility to notify the other credit reporting agencies.

Here are the details on the new Fair And Accurate Credit Transactions Act
