Access Your Free Credit Reports
Overview
The amended federal Fair Credit Reporting Act empowers consumers to obtain free credit reports annually. Take advantage of this opportunity to see what creditors say about you!
Key Points
- Free Annual Access: U.S. consumers can now receive one free credit report each year from Equifax, Experian, and Trans Union. This initiative aims to empower consumers with valuable insights into their credit standing.
- How to Get Your Free Reports:
You can obtain your reports without contacting each agency individually. Simply visit [annualcreditreport.com](http://www.annualcreditreport.com), call 877-322-8228, or mail the Annual Credit Report Request Form to:
Annual Credit Report Request Service
P.O. Box 105281
Atlanta, GA 30348-5281
An online form is also available at [ftc.gov/credit](http://www.ftc.gov/credit).
- Need More Frequent Access?
Although you receive one free annual report, you can purchase additional copies directly from each agency:
- Equifax: [www.equifax.com](http://www.equifax.com) | 800-685-1111
- Experian: [www.experian.com](http://www.experian.com) | 888-EXPERIAN (888-397-3742)
- Trans Union: [www.transunion.com](http://www.transunion.com) | 800-916-8800
- Maximize Your Benefits
Consider ordering your free reports from each agency every four months. This staggered approach lets you monitor changes over time. If you suspect fraud, it's wise to obtain all three reports at once and request a "fraud alert" on your credit file.
- Additional Services
Some private companies can obtain all three reports for you for a fee, offering convenience.
Conclusion
This new law empowers consumers to verify and correct any errors in their credit reports at no cost. Seize this opportunity to ensure your credit history is accurate and up-to-date.
