Worked perfect. Submitted some information. Requested only Experian after reading some reviews. Everyone was accurate, previous address and phone numbers. Report loading fine. Mozilla Firefox 42.0 used.
This site is a TOTAL JOKE! None of the agencies will give you a report online. They ask for all your information then give you a paper form to print and mail in. Seems like a giant scam to me. Looks like the federal government needs to step back in and tell these idiots to be fair to consumers - again!
So I am very wary of entering my full birthday or social security anywhere online. So I was wondering if this site is legit, I guess it is, I had to confirm with this site and www.ftc.org - http://www.ftc.gov/bcp/edu/microsites/freereports/index.shtml. Basically you fill out one form about your personal info and you get a credit report, not a credit score, free, from three different credit companies... Equifax, TransUnion and Experian. When you get the report make sure to save it or print immediately, once you navigate away you can't get it back from that credit company again.
This is the one! Each year you can get a free copy of your credit report. I love this site! It gives you access to all 3 credit reporting agencies. You can get all 3 reports at once or you can get a report every 4 months by just picking ONE credit reporting agency to print a report from each time.
You can sign up for a free account at the 3 credit reporting agencies and they will hold your report online for 30 days to view. They will try and upsell you to pay for your credit score or report monitoring. You probably don't need the score unless you're buying the Taj Mahal... HA! So go check your credit report now for free!
It is the first time I don't struggle finding how to check my credit report... this site is very easy to use, and free... I couldn't see my actual credit number, but I think it was because I am no really familiar with this website and it was my first time, but overall I felt very comfortable and secure using it... I recommend it.
This site is pretty easy to use to see all three of your credit reports (although they will try to upsell you to see your credit score which you don't need to get there). This is the actual government mandated ftc site unlike all the other misleading ones which offer a free credit report with a trial signup with a credit monitoring service (which often are a pain in the butt to cancel once they start charging your credit card automatically).
Stupid site! Was visiting Equifax and wanted to review my Trans Union and Experian reports and it wouldn't allow me to return. Now it says I already visited all 3,,,, What a bunch of B. S,!
This is the REAL website whereby you can access and print your credit report from all 3 credit reporting agencies once per year.
The site is easy to navigate, and only takes about 20-30 minutes to access ALL 3 of your reports and print them out. They also have useful information about disputes and other credit issues that you might need to know about. You can have a free report once per year. There are additional services available for a small charge to get your credit score or monitor your credit. All in all, a nice experience and very helpful!
Don't be scammed by the "freecreditreport.com" type sites. This is the ONLY ONE that is really free and supported by the credit bureaus themselves. All the rest of it out there is just a ploy to get you to buy their "credit monitoring" or protection services. Not really sure if those work or not. But if you want a service like that, it's available here from TrueCredit and it's terrific and a LOT LESS than you'll be hit for on many of the other sites.
Just printed all 3 reports! No issues... just wished the score was included.
Anyway... this is a good and Free.:-)
HORRIBLE experience.
First, this is a legit site. It (theoretically) allows you to get your credit report from all three credit report providers once a year, free of charge.
BUT they make it as incredibly painful for you as possible. I am an application developer, and their site fails just about every usability test I can imagine.
1) They use CAPTCHA-style human verification, but they use one with all capital letters. Typically, this type is case-insensitive, but is theirs? Of course not! Of course, they don't bother TELLING you that it's case insensitive, so you put in three bad codes and BOOM! They decide you've had enough fun, and make you start over from the BEGINNING. All the data you entered (the human verification is on the bottom) is wiped out.
2) The site is EXTREMELY counterintuitive, and the "security" questions they ask you are not good ones. If you, for example, pay more on a loan than is required, that might be a bad answer (or not? Who knows? They won't tell you.)
3) There is no opportunity to provide feedback for how badly they are screwing up. They have a "Contact Us" form, but even properly filled out, with all sorts of personal information, and another CAPTCHA trap, it won't accept your data... and after three times of verifying that all the fields they ask for are correct and properly filled in, and clicking submit, it blows away your feedback and makes you start over again, with absolutely no explanation.
Long story short, this is not a "service". This is something the federal government *required* the credit report providers to provide, and they put the absolute minimum effort into actually doing what they were required to do.
There is also no phone number, no email, no opportunity to contact a human to explain the multitudes of problems with this site. Good luck.
I called Sunday to cancel my subscription and took money out of my account still. I even notified them and was suppose to get a refund and did not.

I don't like how Free Annual Credit Report makes you go to another site to get your credit report. That plus its name makes it sound like a scam.
Beware """Scam""" you provide sensitive information and in return you got bunch of frustration trying to see what information they provided to you.
Does not work. All three said can't verify info even with simple Questions answered correctly!
Don't waist your time. Total BS
Very user-friendly! Went to the site and i was viewing my report in 10 minutes!
