A credit report helps the Fair Credit Reporting Act to include information on where an individual lives, where he lives or if he has been sued. A credit report service can give the person a free credit report to fill in the information and send it.
In the United States, the Fair Credit Reporting Act requires the main credit reporting companies, Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion, to provide you with a free copy of your credit report once every 12 months or if their report was used to deny you credit. While there are many websites promising to provide free credit reports, the FTC recommends you visit the Annual Credit Report website, telephone 1-877-322-8228, or write to Annual Credit Report Request Service; P.O. Box 105281; Atlanta, GA 30348-5281. You should not contact the credit reporting firms directly.
