New helpline for seniors to resolve billing errors and fraud

This new law requires financial companies to set up dedicated helplines for individuals aged 50 and older. This will make it easier for seniors to report and resolve billing issues and protect themselves from fraudulent activities. Importantly, the helpline will not require sensitive personal information, like a social security number, to verify age.
