Description
Will requesting my credit report hurt my credit score?
No, requesting your credit report will not hurt your credit score.
Checking your own credit report is not an inquiry about new credit, so it has no effect on your score. In fact, reviewing your credit report regularly can help you to ensure that the information the credit reporting companies share with lenders is accurate and up-to-date.
You are entitled to a free credit report every 12 months from each of the three major consumer reporting companies (Equifax, Experian and TransUnion).

- Can they charge me interest on a charge I told them I did not make?
- I’m in the military, can a debt collector have my security clearance revoked if I fall behind on paying my debt?
- I’m a servicemember and I’m being sued. What can I do if I can’t make it to court to defend myself or a default judgment is entered because I didn’t appear in court?
- I don’t recognize the name of a creditor listed on my credit report. Should I dispute this listing?
- A few days after my relative’s obituary appeared in the papers, I got a call from someone who said they were a debt collector and that my relative had owed money. They are telling me I have to pay and asking me for my bank account information so they can withdraw the funds. How do I know if this is a scam? What can I do?
