Consumerism Commentary: You Get Three Free Annual Credit Reports

  • Jonathan · 3 years ago
    I always just print it out to a PDF file and e-mail it to myself. It's easier for me and I'm too cheap to spend that much ink on a credit report!

    I've been doing the every four month thing since the free credit reports started. I put in a reminder on Outlook so I don't forget to check it.

    Good idea, John -- I just added it to my calendar.

    Thanks for the reminder. I ordered mine last year around this time. And do you guys ever sleep?

    I've also been trying to do the every 4 months plan, but I have had trouble remembering. I think I will add it to Outlook as well. I could care less what my credit score is. I figure that as long as my report is clean, the score is whatever it is. (I'm not going to try to increase it even if it's low, although I know that it's pretty high based on the credit that I qualify for)
