I'd really like to opt-out of those annoying credit card checks that I get all the time. I guess I'll be calling Chase later. I’m going to look in to these opt out options.

I have to admit that, since I stopped carrying a balance on my cards, I don't pay a lot of attention to the misc. mailings that the credit card companies send me. I see my two card companies listed here and I think I'll call them and see what opt out options are available to me. Thanks for the info.
