Experian Credit Reporting Complaint

Credit monitoring or identity protection account terms and changes

Experian Credit reporting department,

Credit monitoring or identity protection Account terms and changes California

I signed up for a --day trial of Experian 's credit tracker product. When I created an account, it asked for my mother 's maiden name. After I registered, it now displays the maiden name on my account page. I am concerned this is not secure because both my - and - accounts were hacked. If someone hacks into my account, they will get my mother 's maiden name. I raised this with Experian and they said they would pass the feedback along, but said there is nothing they can do about it.
