Where Can I Check My Credit Reports for Free?

A clear next step, with no score or approval promise.

The Short Answer

Use AnnualCreditReport.com for free reports from Equifax, Experian and TransUnion. Free weekly online reports are available. A report shows credit history; it is not automatically a mortgage credit score. Do not send your reports or identity details to WWBT.

1. Use the official free-report service

Go directly to the official free-report service.

Check the web address before entering identity information.

Choose reports from the companies you want to review.

Save the reports privately; you do not need a paid subscription for the free reports.

2. Check for genuine mistakes

Use the report to identify a specific correction.

Compare the item with your records and other reports.

Gather copies of supporting information.

Use the genuine-error dispute guide, not a false deletion claim.

3. Keep reports and scores separate

A free report and a lending score are different things.

Review the report for accuracy.

Ask the mortgage lender which score and report information it uses.

Do not treat a consumer app number as a guaranteed mortgage result.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will checking my own report lower my score?

No. Checking your own report is different from applying for credit.

Do I need to buy a score or membership?

No purchase is required to get the free credit reports through this service.
