How do credit reporting companies get my information?
Banks, credit unions, retail credit card issuers, auto lenders, mortgage lenders, debt collectors and others voluntarily send information to credit reporting companies.
Shared information includes:
- When you apply for an account

Credit reporting companies also purchase public records like liens, bankruptcy filings, and court judgments from public records providers.
