Has anybody tried getting a Free Credit Report?
ipodluvr129 asked:
Like many people out there, one of my New Year’s resolutions was to try to eliminate (most of) my debt and I’m curious to see what my current credit score is. Has anybody used any of the free Credit report sites like freecreditreport.com? Is it really free? Any better sites out there?

But, to answer your question, yes you can get one free credit report from each agency each year. Read up on the website here:

FreeCreditReport.com is free in as much as the free 30-day trial. In order to get the “free” report, they require a credit card to sign up for their services because if you don’t cancel after the 30-days, you get charged a monthly service fee.
And I’ve heard that it can be quite difficult to cancel.
If you just want copies of your credit report, AnnualCreditReport.com is the way to go. ACR doesn’t require a credit card or registration for other services. ACR is the only government approved site to receive your free reports ( 1 per bureau, once every 12 months).
Your credit score will cost extra, no matter what site you go to.

Some of them are real. I got my free credit report from
I was not charged any fees, although l canceled within 30 days period. Just give it a try because it is always important to check your credit reports.
