      Consumers Reminded to Check Their Credit Reports

Consumers Union urged consumers to make sure they get their free copy of their credit report this year from any or all of the three national consumer credit reporting agencies.

The group noted a report last November from the Federal Trade Commission that said only 22 percent of Americans have gotten their free reports since they started becoming available in late 2004; the annual reports became free nationwide in September 2005.

There is a special site set up where consumers can go to request the reports, www.annualcreditreport.com. Consumers can also dial 877-322-8228 to request the reports, or they can mail a completed Annual Credit Report Form to Annual Credit Report Request Service, P.O. Box 105281, Atlanta, GA 30348-5281.

Consumers can get one annual report free yearly from each of the reporting agencies. They can be ordered at one time or different times throughout the year.
