A credit score must be purchased separately and is a number between 300 and 850 that evaluates your risk as a borrower.
To improve your credit score quickly, always pay your bills on time and pay down the total amount you owe.
There are three major credit bureaus - Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion - and they don't share information. So even if you correct an error on one credit report, you will have to do the same on the other two.
You have the right under federal law to challenge items on your credit report. The credit bureau then has 30 days to decide whether that item should be removed.
If a credit bureau refuses to correct a mistake, you can sue.
Get copies of all three credit reports six months before you apply for a home loan. An error on your credit report can take months to clear up.
