Just a heads up for those that care about their credit..
I found it odd that infone requires a mother maiden name and their TOS reads by signing up, "You authorize Infone to investigate and validate your credit history.."
In case you dont know, credit enquires are bad for your credit and pull down your FICO score. They will also remain on your bureaus for years. I don't feel safe giving a phone service company, that I'll never use, my mmn.
Anyone use a fake? Did you get credit??

One of my referals was thinking about the infone service. (Since it's free and all) I just needed a quick clarification. Infone is basically a 411 service correct? Not a local or long distance service. Thanks.

Yes it is a 411 service with extras like booking restaurant spots and ordering movie tickets (those are only some of the extra services they provide).

When I signed up I gave a false maiden name... also, not sure how they can check your credit history without your social....

I don't even know my MMN, I always use a fake one, I always put nonsense in that stupid secret question field, I just hit "asdfasdfa" or something.. yes I got instant credit.

Well, it looks like infone isn't even on the list anymore. Do you think it will come back? Don't they just rotate their promos on the list?

It shows up at around 9 or 930 at night, and is taken off every day around 9 in the morning. Pacific time, that is.
