The "Do Not Call Registry" works well to stop annoying solicitors from calling you. You can also stop credit card companies, mortgage lenders and insurance companies from mailing you offers by calling 1-888-5-OPT-OUT. The consumer credit reporting industry provides this free program for any consumers including those who are rebuilding their credit after bankruptcy.
High credit card debt can lead to bankruptcy, but the opt-out program can help you avoid tempting credit card offers more easily. Opting out of the mailings will also reduce your risk of identity theft. Identity thieves won't be able to steal these offers from your mailbox and use them to apply for credit under your name.
