The three credit bureaus include Experian, Equifax, and Transunion. If you go through the www.annualcreditreport.com link, then you can do one every four months so that you can monitor your credit report easily. Depending on which ones you selected, you have the option to view them at that time. When you do a check on them, you want to first go over all your demographic information and make sure different addresses, birthdays, etc. aren’t showing up on the report. The next thing you need to do is look over the accounts that are open and see if anything stands out that shouldn’t be there. If you find any information that isn’t yours or you question it, you should dispute it.
