Aurora Lillo Editor of the "Best Credit Reporting Services" website -- http://www.BestCreditReportServices.com -- pointed out;


“...All of the above telephone numbers have automated systems, so you will have to follow the prompts to ultimately obtain the information you need. Each of them has a telephone number you may call to speak to an actual person, although you must have a copy of your account history report from their agency, or be a member of their customer account monitoring service to obtain access...”

If you meet this criteria, here are the telephone numbers, but you still must follow the prompts:

Equifax - (866)640-2273
Experian - (800)493-1058
TransUnion - (800)916-8800

This site offers consumers a fast, effective way to request, view and print their account history reports in a secure Internet environment. It is also approved by the Federal Trade Commission (FTC). You can request your report online, by mail or by telephone. The information is as follows:

“...Since you are entitled to one free copy of your debt and payment history disclosure from each of the three reporting agencies once a year, should you request a copy of all three at the same time? This would enable you to compare the reports for the information contained in each, and insure all of the information is accurate. If you order one from a different agency every four months though, you can typically see any changes that may have occurred over the previous four months. This decision is totally up to you...” added A. Lillo.
