CREDIT REPORT

Keep Track of Your Credit

Due to the Fair and Accurate Credit Transactions Act (FACT Act), Minnesotans are able to order one free credit report per year from each of the 3 major consumer credit reporting companies -- Equifax, Experian and TransUnion.

This is a major step forward for people concerned with keeping identity thieves out of business. MY CREDIT UNION would like to encourage all members to order your report from each one of these companies.

This is your opportunity to examine your reports for mistakes. Any accounts or cards that you feel don’t belong on your credit report may be signs of identity theft. MY CREDIT UNION joins many other financial analysts in recommending that you elect to order 1 report from just 1 of the 3 companies every 4 months. We believe that this is the method for maximizing your ability to get 1 free report 12 months from each of the companies. By receiving a “fresh” credit report on a more regular basis you stand a much better chance of catching identity theft before it gets out of control. Be sure to save your reports and be sure to compare reports side by side, both old to new and one company’s report to another.
