What is the best/cheapest way for me to watch all 3 of my reports on a monthly basis? I am trying to clean things up and would like to be able to see the progress and also make sure things are being done as they should be........Thanks

TrueCredit is $14.95 per month and you can pull new reports everyday if you wish. However, some have been cancelled for excessive pulling. I've pulled at least 4 times a week, normally everyday for just over a month.

It provides scores, but they are FAKO, ignore those. But just for monitoring your report while you are cleaning it up.......it is good.

There are other services where you get a report monthly. They aren't much cheaper.

Once you have a report number - you can use it over and over to veiw your REAL TIME report - I have benn using mine for almost a year-

Too bad EQ does not play like the rest-

You could use Their GOLD program and the links above- and get all 3 FULL REPORTS for about $15 a month.

Amen Timothy, I thought I was the only one with that sneaky tactic. As long as you state your purpose as having something to dispute, you're GTG.
