What's Happening with Your Credit Behind the Scenes
Think about this: Your credit report is updated by your creditors and the credit reporting agencies, and requested by others who want to see if you qualify for new credit. This constant activity happens – even without your knowledge – as you go about your daily life.
With Grow My Credit, you gain insight into all the actions that have taken place on your credit.
Before the 1970s, people had very limited rights regarding their own credit reports. Access to your credit history wasn’t widely available, and there was little recourse if information was reported incorrectly. This often left consumers unable to understand why they were denied credit or whether mistakes had been made. The Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) was enacted to provide protections, giving you important rights related to your credit report and access to your own credit information.
Because of the FCRA and other consumer protection laws, you have the right to access your credit report and review the information it contains. At Grow My Credit, we provide guidance and education to help you understand your credit profile, identify areas that may need attention, and make informed decisions about managing your credit responsibly.
The case for credit education is a strong one. Grow My Credit helps you understand your credit report and provides guidance so you can make informed financial decisions.
