Credit Report
Most of us spend more during the months of November and December, which may cause us to lose track of our finances just a bit. Unfortunately, scammers and thieves also know this to be true, so it’s very important that you pull a copy of your free credit report in January and review it carefully.
You're entitled to receive one free copy of your credit report annually from each of the three credit reporting agencies (Experian, Equifax, and TransUnion), so a total of three reports each year. You can pull a copy online at www.annualcreditreport.com. Rather than pulling all three reports at once, we recommend pulling one of the reports every four months - January, April & September. This will help you keep a year-round eye on your credit report and catch potential fraudulent activity sooner.
If you need assistance reading your credit report, disputing any items, and provide advice for building or raising your credit score, please contact the credit union.
