Thanks Bill,

Others had replied, so I made my responses and questions on the list for
their info, but I am done with it tho, so no worries. :)

>Also, insurance companies have a valid reason for needing this
>information.

If it was a valid reason, how did they do quotes before the law allowed
the credit checks in the first place, and how do they do it in states
where it is not allowed? A quote is just that, not a binding contract.

Its just another method of invading privacy and wielding the sword of
power and authority in the face of the consumer.

Your explanations and experiences are much appreciated. My disgust, bad
attitude, and distrust is directed at elected representatives who allow
this kind of stuff to happen at all.

Thanks for the web site pointer. I will go check things out.

Best Regards,

John
