Re: Credit report

It depends on you. Do you like to track your scores and other changes monthly? And most importantly, can you afford it every month? 

That $40 a month can add up for a lot of people. 

Just think about if it's worth paying for while you're gardening! 

Enjoy your Sunday!

Re: Credit report

I agree with @Mr_Mojo_Risin .

 

I use Experian for my 3 bureau FICO scores and the free sites below.

 

Free or $1 you can obtain your 3 bureau FICO 8 scores and reports at Experian or CreditCheckTotal (part of Experian). Cancel in 7 day or less to avoid the re-occurring monthly charge. Wash, Rinse, and Repeat as needed.

AnnualCreditReport. Free weekly 3 bureau online reports through April 2021.

Free credit reports (disregard the VantageScore 3.0 score) at:
Credit Karma for weekly TU and EQ reports.
WalletHub for daily TU report.

Re: Credit report

^ definitely recommend the perpetual trial mentioned above. Experian has a great service and it includes a lot of information. If you forget to cancel, it's also just $25 instead of $40.

If you're gardening, I don't think you need to stay on top of your report like that either. Maybe come back and start reviewing them a month or two before you reach your goal date so you know where you stand better.
