    I also did it at that time. I was afraid it was going to be an inconvenience, but its only come up twice in all that time.

    For people considering it, you can request a short-term thaw any time you know you’re going to be doing something that requires a credit check. That way it gets refrozen without the chance of me forgetting to do so.
