It is recommended to check each credit file with the three agencies, once a year. Get your free credit score once every four months from a different agency.
Aurora Lillo Editor of the “Best Credit Reporting Services” website — http://www.BestCreditReportServices.com — pointed out;
“…When you receive your credit files, you want to check the file for accuracy. Check the spelling of your name, current address, previous addresses listed, current employer, previous employers, credit inquiries, delinquencies, financial institutions listed, credit limits for each financial institution, outstanding balances with creditors, and all other data reported. If you find any errors, you will want to write the respective agency disputing the error…”
Prior to disputing, you will want proof of the error through the proper documentation. For example, a previous car loan is showing an outstanding balance. You have paid the car loan in full. Send a letter to the prospective agency disputing the balance, with the payoff slip from the creditor.
“…Having a correct credit score, you know where you can make improvements. Your credit score affects your ability to get a future credit card, vehicle loan, and even a future job. Many employers are now checking your credit files to check accuracy of previous employers, previous addresses, and your scores. A low credit score shows that you have been irresponsible in some fashion. Depending on the prospective job, your responsibility with money may be vital to success. So, get your free credit report today…” added A. Lillo.
