Being able to obtain an Equifax free credit report was not always
an easy thing to do. In fact, up until last year, only Western states
were able to solicit an Equifax free credit report. But now all Americans
have the opportunity to view their credit reports; and this has dramatically
increased Equifax's workload.
The ruling to allow everyone the option of getting an Equifax free
credit report every year was a big step to make. However, it seems
to be working well and everyone is getting the chance to view his
or her credit report free of charge.
Equifax, however, only has to give you one free credit report a year;
and if you would like to receive another credit report, then you have
to pay more money. It will usually cost about $3-$9, depending on
where you live.
The only exception to this rule is for those who have been denied
either credit or a job or are on welfare or unemployed; in this case,
you will be given another Equifax free credit report. But one option that
really shows that these people care is that if your Equifax free credit
report was inaccurate due to fraud, then they will send you another
credit report free.
The Equifax free credit report is the best way to keep a yearly check
on your credit score. You will be able to see what has happened in the
year that has made it go down, or what has made it go up. It may seem
weird to know that your every move is being taken down and written onto
a piece of paper that you will read once a year.
But that is what's happening, and even though it may seem strange, there
is nothing we can do to change it. But at least we will know why we keep
getting rejected for credit cards.
