Your Credit Scores—Getting your reports without your scores is like getting a
report card without grades.
Obtaining your credit scores along with your credit reports is almost equally as
important. Your credit scores are your starting, or “before” picture. We feel that
it is always vital to know where you’re starting from. This is actually why The
Credit People not only obtain our customer’s credit reports for them when they
sign up for our service; we actually get their starting credit scores too. It’s
important, because it is the ideal measure of success. It’s the starting line.
You can obtain each of your credit scores with your credit reports for $7-$10 per
credit report. Like I mentioned earlier, you will of course need all three from
Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion. There are other products that include 3 in 1
monthly monitoring as well, and each credit reporting agency has a different price
for this type of product.
However you manage to obtain your credit reports and scores, the next step is to
understand what they mean!
