Do you have a right to know what is in your credit report?

The law says you do. The FCRA says you are allowed to have 1 free credit report from each credit bureau every year. If you want more than that, you can purchase them or dispute something on your credit report and you will be furnished with a new one.

Yes. Anyone who takes action against you in response to a credit report supplied by a Consumer Reporting Agency (CRA) � such as denying your application for a credit card, loan, insurance, or employment � must give you the name, address, and telephone number of the CRA that provided the credit report.

The CRA must tell you everything in your credit report, including medical information, and in most cases, the sources of the information. The CRA also must give you a list of everyone who has requested your report within the past year � two years for employment-related requests.
