How to Get a Free Credit Score Report - Your FICO Score In No Time
The long dreary lines at the local bank or the snide comments that an individual might have had to endure at a financial office in the past are no longer necessary when it comes to viewing their credit report.
In the modern era of the internet the search for your financial information is as easy as a few simple mouse clicks from the privacy of your own home.
Aurora Lillo Editor of the "Credit Report And Scores" website -- http://www.CreditReportAndScores.biz -- pointed out;
"...There are no lines, no waiting, and no smarmy representatives to deal with. The only issue is determining which reporting agency you might choose to work with. The government has mandated that all citizens have the legal right to view their report for free once per year. This is an excellent concept but it is not nearly enough for the average citizen..."
The minimum number of times that an individual should check their report per year is actually twelve. They should check it once per calendar month and the very least. There are several reasons for this. This fact also holds true for individuals with excellent credit as well. One of the primary reasons for checking so often is the prevention of identity theft. When an individual checks their report often they become familiar with it. This allows them to readily become aware of a sudden series of charges or a new account in their name that they did not open.
Acquiring your FICO score and credit report are very simple steps. It really is as simple as logging onto the internet, finding a proper service, accepting membership with them, then viewing your information. One of the best aspects of this type of service is that many of them offer free trials as well. A free trial offer varies from company to company but many will typically offer a week's worth of free service. This allows the prospective member to view their pertinent information and become familiar with the company set up and site navigation.
"...If the new client chooses not to stay with that company all they have to do is cancel their membership prior to the end of the trial. It will cost them nothing. However, if they find that they do enjoy the service of the company most of these agencies will cost anywhere from fifteen to twenty-five dollars per month for unlimited access to their credit report and FICO scores. This is considered reasonable and very useful since it allows for the individual to view their report as often as they like..." added A. Lillo.
