Equifax, Experian and TransUnion Support U.S. Consumers With Ongoing Availability of Free Weekly Credit Reports
18 September 2023 - 11:00PM
The three Nationwide Credit Reporting Agencies (NCRAs) – Equifax®
(NYSE:EFX), Experian (LON:EXPN) and TransUnion (NYSE:TRU) – are
reinforcing their commitment to the financial health of U.S.
consumers with the ongoing availability of free weekly credit
reports through AnnualCreditReport.com. This free service was first
introduced at the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic to help consumers
protect their financial health during the sudden and unprecedented
hardship caused by the public health emergency. It has been
permanently extended by the NCRAs to empower consumers to more
regularly review their credit history and better understand their
financial data.
The companies' CEOs provided a statement on the availability of
free weekly credit reports: “We maintain a shared commitment to
building consumers’ financial capabilities and are dedicated to
helping increase financial access for people across the United
States,” said Mark W. Begor, CEO Equifax; Brian Cassin, CEO
Experian; and Chris Cartwright, CEO TransUnion. “The ongoing
availability of free weekly credit reports is another way that our
industry is supporting consumers as they make financial decisions.
We recognize the important role that credit reports play in
people’s financial lives and encourage consumers to regularly check
their credit history – an important way of understanding their
current credit position and preparing for important future
financial milestones.”
Consumer credit reports are a factual record of credit activity
and payment history used by lenders, creditors, service providers
and other businesses to extend financial opportunities and other
offers to people. Consumers can access their free credit reports
each week from each of the three credit reporting agencies at
www.AnnualCreditReport.com. Consumers should review all items
appearing in each section of their credit reports. If an error is
identified, consumers should contact the credit reporting agency
immediately to correct that information.
