Default How to get Credit Report...

Today I would like to suggest the steps where you can get free credit report. The three major credit-reporting agencies, Equifax, TransUnion and Experian, are each required to provide consumers, upon request, a free copy of their credit report once every 12 months. Each consumer must request reports one of these three ways:

Go to AnnualCreditReport.com, which is the only authorized source for consumers to access their annual credit report on-line for free.

Call (877) 322-8228.

Complete the form on the back of the Annual Credit Report Request brochure, and mail it to: Annual Credit Report Request Service, P.O. Box 105281, Atlanta, GA 30348-5281. The brochure, which can be ordered or printed, is available from the Federal Trade Commission. Click here for more information.

Can you suggest any other way to find the free credit report if any way available ?
Thanks.

A credit report is an accumulation of information about how you pay your bills and repay loans, how much credit you have available, what your monthly debts are, and other types of information that can help a potential lender decide whether you are a good credit risk or a bad credit risk. The report itself does not say whether you are a good or bad credit risk -- it provides lenders with the data to make the decision themselves. Credit bureaus, also known as credit reporting agencies (CRAs), collect this information from merchants, lenders, landlords, etc., and then sell the report to businesses so they can evaluate your application for credit. Lenders make their decisions based on different criteria, so having all of the information helps them ensure that they are making the right decision.**

Credit history when documented becomes Credit Report. Credit report will summarize that what type of loans you have, how did you pay them off, available credit, interest rates offered and record of credit checks. Most credit account information remains on your creditreport for up to seven years; bankruptcy, however, can remain for ten years. Sometimes there are discrepencies on credit report like a false transaction which leads to negative credit score. You you must read in deatil and check the accuracy of your credit score. If you find any error then you can raise a dispute to correct that .
