Want a free credit report?

Posted on Thursday, October 27th, 2011

If you have been denied credit, you are entitled to a free credit report.  Don’t throw about your letter in frustration, but instead contact the credit bureau that furnished the information used to deny you and get a free copy of your report.  Don’t you want to know what they are saying about you?
