WHO REALLY OWNS YOUR CREDIT REPORT?<br />

FREE<br />

CREDIT<br />

REPORTS<br />

Government requires that credit<br />

bureaus give you free access at least<br />

once a year.<br />

You can check the various credit bureaus’<br />

websites for how to get free access. If offered<br />

the choice between a free credit score or a<br />

free credit report, the report is always best<br />

as it contains a lot of information about the<br />

different debts you have (and other things like<br />

if you are under debt review or have a recent<br />

judgement against your name).<br />

Many debt counselling practices will also give<br />

you a free report if you contact them and ask.
