So when you get your reports, check for inaccuracies; the bureaus are required to investigate and correct them once you report them. Look, too, for things that may lower your credit rating, including open lines of credit you never use or accounts you thought had been closed long ago.

The bureaus may have different information about your credit history, which means your credit score can vary somewhat from bureau to bureau. So it’s important to view reports from all three.

You can get any of the bureaus’ credit reports free at www.freeannualcreditreport.com and your FICO score from MyFICO.com. Then check if this is true: If you’ve been turned down for credit, employment or housing in the past 60 days, you may receive a free credit report from all of the three credit bureaus
