Any entity who is considering extending credit to a potential borrower is allowed to see your credit report. The following list provides a subset of those entities who may look at your credit:

* Telephone companies

* Gas/Electric companies

* Cable/Satellite companies

* Landlord/Rental companies

* Insurance companies

* Any and all Financial Services Providers

The credit bureaus use stringent rules in who they will allow sharing of data with in order to protect your privacy.
