I wish people would stop recommending these sites where you have to subscribe to some service to get your credit report.\n\nIn 2004 Congress passed a law requiring the 3 credit bureaus to give every one a free copy of their credit report once a year.\n\nThat site is www.annualcreditreport.com.\n\nALL OTHER SITES CHARGE YOU!!!\n\nGood Luck

You can go to https://www.annualcreditreport.com for 1 free credit report every 12 months from each of the three credit bureaus. They give you the report for free, but you have to pay like $5 for the score.

As mentioned above, go to www.annualcreditreport.com.\n\nThis site was set up last year in response to a new law that forces the 3 credit agencies to supply you with a FREE yearly credit report.  It's fairly automated and easy to use.\n\nYou can either download your reports and view/print them while on-line, or get info on calling a toll-free number or mailing for them.  \n\nEither way, it's free and easy.

Try to find the website for you state court system or county court system. Many will have a freebie area to check on people's criminal and civil records. However, a credit report (bill paying tendencies) will never be free.

Each credit agency can provide you with one free credit report per year.  Just go to one of their websites and there's usually a link on the main page that takes you to the request page.  You can either see the reports online and print them out, or if you want the report mailed then you have to print out a request form and mail it out.  The three major credit bureaus are Experian, Equifax, and Transunion.  (Their websites are their names).

I got mine on www.annualcreditreport.com\nIt is based on the law that everyone be allowed to get a free credit report once a year.  As long as you have any old addresses and bank account info you won't have to put in your credit card number.  (I check it there all the time...)

Caution:  Some websites provide the free credit report, but also place you in a monthly subscription for their credit monitoring service unless you cancel.

The ONLY place you should get your free credit report from is  annualcreditreport.com.  I did it recently and they do not ask for a credit card.  This is in accordance with the Federal Trade Commission (see link below).

The above answer is correct, www.annualcreditreport.com, but do NOT ask for your FICO scores or they will ask for money. If you do not get your reports there is a form you can fill out.

You can request a report from every check recovery company just like credit reports.  Search in your area phone book, or ask a local business for their contact info and get them a call.  Normally its a simple form you fill out and they send you a report showing anything negative.

Best bet is to order a credit report. This way not only do you get information about the old credit card account you are able to get an up to date account of your entire credit history.\n\nHere is some information on how to get your credit report:\n\nQ: How do I order my free report?\n\nA: The three nationwide consumer reporting companies have set up a central website, a toll-free telephone number, and a mailing address through which you can order your free annual report.\n\nTo order, visit annualcreditreport.com, call 1-877-322-8228, or complete the Annual Credit Report Request Form and mail it to: Annual Credit Report Request Service, P.O. Box 105281, Atlanta, GA 30348-5281. The form is on the back of this brochure; or you can print it from ftc.gov/credit. Do not contact the three nationwide consumer reporting companies individually. They are providing free annual credit reports only through annualcreditreport.com, 1-877-322-8228, and Annual Credit Report Request Service, P.O. Box 105281, Atlanta, GA 30348-5281.\n\nYou may order your reports from each of the three nationwide consumer reporting companies at the same time, or you can order your report from each of the companies one at a time. The law allows you to order one free copy of your report from each of the nationwide consumer reporting companies every 12 months.\n\nA Warning About “Imposter” Websites\nOnly one website is authorized to fill orders for the free annual credit report you are entitled to under law – annualcreditreport.com. Other websites that claim to offer “free credit reports,” “free credit scores,” or “free credit monitoring” are not part of the legally mandated free annual credit report program. In some cases, the “free” product comes with strings attached. For example, some sites sign you up for a supposedly “free” service that converts to one you have to pay for after a trial period. If you don’t cancel during the trial period, you may be unwittingly agreeing to let the company start charging fees to your credit card.\n\nSome “imposter” sites use terms like “free report” in their names; others have URLs that purposely misspell annualcreditreport.com in the hope that you will mistype the name of the official site. Some of these “imposter” sites direct you to other sites that try to sell you something or collect your personal information.\n\nannualcreditreport.com and the nationwide consumer reporting companies will not send you an email asking for your personal information. If you get an email, see a pop-up ad, or get a phone call from someone claiming to be from annualcreditreport.com or any of the three nationwide consumer reporting companies, do not reply or click on any link in the message. It’s probably a scam. Forward any such email to the FTC at spam@uce.gov.\n\nQ: What information do I need to provide to get my free report?\n\nA: You need to provide your name, address, Social Security number, and date of birth. If you have moved in the last two years, you may have to provide your previous address. To maintain the security of your file, each nationwide consumer reporting company may ask you for some information that only you would know, like the amount of your monthly mortgage payment. Each company may ask you for different information because the information each has in your file may come from different sources.\n\nQ: How long does it take to get my report after I order it?\n\nA: If you request your report online at annualcreditreport.com, you should be able to access it immediately. If you order your report by calling toll-free 1-877-322-8228, your report will be processed and mailed to you within 15 days. If you order your report by mail using the Annual Credit Report Request Form, your request will be processed and mailed to you within 15 days of receipt.\n\nWhether you order your report online, by phone, or by mail, it may take longer to receive your report if the nationwide consumer reporting comp
