Copies of Your Credit Report:
The [1]Electronic Privacy Information Center has published a [2]list
of consumer privacy tips. Among those on the list: request a free copy
of your credit report.
All Americans are now entitled to a free credit report from each of
the three nationwide credit reporting agencies, Experian, Equifax,
and Trans Union. You can engage in a free form of credit monitoring
by requesting one of your three reports every four months. By
staggering your request, you can check for errors regularly and
identify potential problems in your credit report before you lose
out on a loan or home purchase. Currently, these reports are
available to residents of most western states. By September 2005,
all Americans will have free access to their credit report.
You can get more information, as well as a link to the page to request
a report, from [3]this site.
