Truth About Free Credit Reports

We appreciate your desire to obtain a free credit report. The fact is that maintaining credit histories and providing reports to people is a business. No business that survives can give away its products for free.

Every web site providing "free" credit reports works with the three credit reporting bureaus. These sites can only offer you a brief review of your report. Most offer a free 3 day or 30 day view of your report from one of the three credit reporting agencies.

Creditors may not send reports of your credit transactions to all three bureaus. Thus, reports from each credit reporting bureau may differ. It's to your advantage to see your complete credit history in a "3-in-1" type report.

To see your full credit history from the three reporting bureaus you'll have to pay. To view your report over a period of time as your credit history changes you'll have to pay.

There is no way for any web site to provide your credit history outside of the three reporting bureaus. And the three credit reporting agencies are businesses; they charge for their services.

Credit Report Scores - How to See Them

Each of the three credit reporting agencies can provide you with a one-time copy of your credit report. Equifax, Experian, for example, will provide your report online for a fee of $9. Trans Union charges from $7.50 to $9 for your credit report.

All three credit reporting agencies will also provide a one-time copy of a "3-in-1" credit report. This contains your credit reports and your credit report scores from all three reporting agencies. Trans Union charges $34.95 while Equifax and Experian each charge $39.95.
