In today's world where credit is king it is extremely important to maintain a good clean credit report. Having good credit by paying bills on time is not enough, you must watch your credit report to ensure no errors are on your credit report. Because credit reporting companies are so prone to errors the US Government requires that you receive a free credit report once per year by simply asking. AnnualCreditReport.Com is a online web site created by the big three credit report companies to allow you to obtain a free credit report from each credit reporting agency. You can see your free credit report online and the online credit report is very easy to read. In particular look on your free credit report to ensure that all accounts that should be closed are marked with a close date. Any accounts on your free credit report that are mistakenly open you need to call and request they be closed. Look at the symbols that indicate late payments. If you see late payments on your free online credit report contact the credit company and see if they can be removed. All this credit report information is critical in coming up with your credit score. Some call this a FICO score and this score is used to determine where you can get a loan and at what interest rate. The higher your FICO score the lower your interest rate. For information on FICO Score and how it relates to your free online credit report check out the article Is 700 a good credit score.
