Your rights with credit bureaus & report companies

Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act you can dispute anything inaccurate or incomplete on your report, and the credit bureau generally has to investigate within 30 days (45 in some cases) and fix or delete what it cannot verify. You are entitled to free reports from each nationwide bureau at annualcreditreport.com, and you can place a fraud alert or a free security freeze.

Scam warning: Nobody can legally remove accurate negative information from your report - be wary of anyone promising to. The only official site for your free reports is annualcreditreport.com.
