I assume the paying is to compensate for not taking your data. No reason to stay with the platform otherwise.

Oh no they're definitely still taking your data. They're the credit bureau after all, data brokering your data makes them money. They just want you to pay extra for some added, totally not worth it services.

We can't opt out of them collecting our credit information to begin with.
