I would not advise logging on to any site because they ask you to input your social security number---better go to a bank which has an intra-link to the credit reporting agency, so less liable for someone to hack your ss number and create mischief.

Look under annual credit report, I believe www.annualcreditreport.com You can do it 3 times per year and I stage it to keep on top of whats on my file.

Fico scores usually are not free, however you can check your credit once a year for free at freecreditreport.com .  You will be able to see any mistakes on it if there are any.  Some credit cards as a feature on their websites have a credit score that is reported to them by one of the 3 credit bureaus, which could help you gain understanding of where you stand.

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.

Yes, annualcreditreport.com is the place to go. To monitor your credit year round for free, only request a report from one of the three agencies now. Wait 4 months then request a report from one of the remaining two agencies, then 4 months after that request the last agency's report. 4 months after that you will be ready to request next years free report from the first agency, and so on.

You can start by getting a free credit report by going to AnnualCreditReport.com, the government's response to credit and identity theft. It will direct you to chose one of the three major reporting agencies to get your current report. You will have to pay for your credit score, however.\n\nTo find a credit card that might issue you at least a minimum limit card of say $500, try ConsumerCredit.com, a website of American Consumer Credit Counseling, which offers free services. It is a clearing house for consumer complaints and rates credit cards, and might work with you to get one.\n\nOtherwise, you'll just have to fill out credit issuers' applications and wait to see if they approve you, one by one.

I'm sorry to tell Renee that there is only one site that is absolutely free:  AnnualCreditReport.com.  It's the ONLY government approved site to get your free credit report from each of the bureaus.\nThey don't ask for your credit card # and does not require you to sign up for any services.  If you want your credit score, you will have to pay for that.\nIf you find any other site that offers a 'free credit report' ignore them.

There is a place to get a completely free credit report. \nhttps://www.annualcreditreport.com/cra/index.jsp\nYou pay for nothing unless you want to look at your score. You dont even have to enter a credit card number. Also don't check your credit report every 4 months as another user suggested. Too many inquiries will lower your score.
