And got really ticked off.

"Financial information: Individuals with poor credit scores, liens, civil judgments, or those who have filed for bankruptcy may be at an additional risk of stealing from the company. "

When are people going to learn that people who have filed BK don't do so to "steal from the company" and because they are such "bad people?"

Yes, that is a "shame"....... insinuating that people who file bankruptcy are "theives" or will turn into them after bankuptcy.....

After filing bankruptcy individuals are "debt free", they ave no reason to "steal"... and normally in a financial position of being "debt free" that few will ever know.....

It's a shame that companies still want to "label" us............ are we irresponsible..... may we were when it come to our own finances..... but theives - NO WAY....

But not much we can do about it.......

Everything's generalized to day...that's why when you go into the hospital, they always say pation "claims"...the terminology is unbearably bad...my mom goes off on the doctors all the time just because of the way of the wording on her medical issues....

You can get on wikipedia and make corrections. It's a "public" forum.

Indeed. If someone has not already, I will in a moment.

I edited that entry and explained my edits on the discussion page, if any care to see. Hopefully it will remain unchanged.
