To our legislators. The idea of charging an individual to see information that has been collected about them by an external organization and can be used either for or against that individual is ridcuclous. Follow this thinking and doctors/medical institutions will charge conumers to view what is in their medical records. All such information should be free for the consumer to view, at any time. I further suggest that if there is any change to the individuals credit report or credit score, it be a requirement of the various credit organizations to notify the consumer what has changed and why. The consumer did not ask to have all this information gathered about them yet is still responsible for the accuracy of that information. Make it readily available, for free, when anything changes or upon request. Thanks for the opportunity to share my thoughts. Norm
