NewRider Posted January 9, 2006 Report Share Posted January 9, 2006 Does anyone have a clue as to how I can get a credit check done on myself for FREE? Everytime I do a search I get sent to some stupid page that is just for Americans or sends me to some other search result site that has tons of pop ups.any help?

Basher Posted January 9, 2006 Report Share Posted January 9, 2006 There are no free credit checks in Canada that I know of. You can go to Equifax.ca and pay (like $19 or something) to have it done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewRider Posted January 9, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2006 Could that price potentially be "bashed" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tooly Posted January 9, 2006 Report Share Posted January 9, 2006 transunion is the better choice for personal credit checksi pull em on debtors all day long, its 3.50 or something every time, equifax is more for buisnesses. they have limited personal recordsfunny story, i pulled my own today with equifax, and it said i had like 5 or 6 R9's on there, ive never owned a credit card, they totally had another guy with BAD credit with the same name, my mortgage guy called me huffing and puffing about it. got it all straight now though.yeah, so use transunion, its cheaper, and better for your personal stuff.www.transunion.comthey have a branch in hamilton Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
badams Posted January 9, 2006 Report Share Posted January 9, 2006 You can get your credit report at no charge. However it is not available online. You have to write to request it and wait for the results in the mail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calamity Jane Posted January 9, 2006 Report Share Posted January 9, 2006 Equifax will do it for free...you just have to call their 1-800 number and request it over the phone. It'll show you exactly what banks and other lenders see about you when they do a credit check on you.1.800.278.0278 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
