Errors in Credit ReportYour credit report may contain inaccuracies. The best way to ensure there are no errors in your credit report is to request copies and review the information. Since each of the main credit bureaus keeps its own records, you may want to request copies from all three: Trans Union, Equifax, and Experian. If you have been turned down for credit because of the information in your credit report, you are entitled to receive a free copy of your report within 60 days of the denial. If you haven't been denied credit, you can still request a copy of your credit report, usually for a nominal fee. If you find errors in your report, follow the directions in the credit report and contact the agencies to have the errors corrected. They will investigate the targeted items and remove incorrect information. You don't have to delay applying for a mortgage while errors in your report are being corrected. Explain the discrepancies in the report to your lender and state that the credit agency is correcting them.
