FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
(Free-Press-Release.com) October 20, 2008 -- Most of us speak of having a "credit score" when in fact most people have at least three or more scores - and these scores can vary widely.
There are three major credit bureaus in the country that develop credit reports and calculate credit scores. There are also a number of smaller credit bureau companies.
Beware the free credit score report as some companies promise "free" credit reports only with the purchase of a credit repair program or some other kit. Read the company policy first.

Once you learn and understand different options that are right for you and gain the knowledge you need to take control of your own financial situation, You will be capable of making your own informed choices.

Be choosy where you get your credit report - and its contents.

There are a number of online companies that offer free online credit reports. These offers are very attractive because you get an online report without having to wait for a report to be sent to you, and you often can get several reports from the different credit bureaus at once, which can save you time.
However, these online companies vary widely, so you will want to compare a few different firms before choosing one. You will also need to read the online company's agreement very carefully.

- some promise free credit reports only with the purchase of a credit repair program or some other kit. In some cases, you can decline the offer and still get the report but in other cases you cannot.
