Where is a good place to get a credit report?

[brainshrub]

I need to run a credit report, I've Googled "Credit Reports" and there are so many to chose from.

Does anyone have a good suggestion as to a good on-line credit-report company? Don't they have to give you your credit report for free now?

Thanks-in-advance.

1. You get one free one from each of the credit bureaus a year. So go to

https://www.annualcreditreport.com/cra/index.jsp

and check it out. It's a site sponsored by the three bureaus.

2. Thanks, but that service won't be available until Sept 1, 2005

Darn.

3. I just used the service to get MY reports...

Don't know why YOU can't.

Thanks for the link, by the way!

5. FYI, the free reports are being phased in regionally n/t

4. MyFico.com is good...

It's THE source for your credit score and it can also tell you what inquiries have been made to your credit and when and what is currently on your credit report. The cheapest one is like $8.95/month. I have it and like it pretty good :)

6. Try the Experian, Trans-Union, or Equifax web sites.

Those are the three credit reporting companies. You are entitled to one free credit report per year by law. Experion has a site called "http://freecreditreport.com", however beware, if you use that site, tell them you do NOT want to use the "free" credit monitoring service, because they will bill you 12 dollars a month for that.

Good luck...
