FYI for those who got Trustedid.com from Equifax after their breach....

[steve2470]

I locked my account with Equifax. I also locked my account with the other two big credit reporting agencies.

Equifax informed me, via their portal https://www.trustedid.com/premier/myaccount.php that my report was UNLOCKED. I locked it AGAIN.

Word to the wise. Check your Equifax account AGAIN. If they fail again, I'm going to call them. Hope this helps a few.

1. Trustedid.com ????

I froze my account a couple of years ago. I have a pin and a note "logon not needed." I find I'm not registered at trustedid.com. I see it has an Equifax banner. It doesn't give an opportunity to register on the pages I landed on. What is it?

2. it's a free service that Equifax gave to anyone affected (or not) by their huge data breach

You don't have to have it or register for it.

If you want it, go here: https://trustedidpremier.com/eligibility/eligibility.html

3. Hmmm... Isn't this the "one year free" service, and then they start charging?

I didn't see anything like that in the link above, but I had read about it. Also, in the beginning (but no longer) it included a waiver on suing them.

4. it's free now, I don't know about later

I won't pay for it, that's for sure. If you go to the main page of Equifax equifax.com you'll probably find more official info. Good luck.
