I would recommend going to www.annualcreditreport.com. There you can obtain a free credit report from all 3 credit reporting agencies. You can order this free credit report once every 12 months from each agency (Transunion, Equifax, Experian) as required by law. You will be given an opportunity to purchase a credit score from any of the nationwide credit reporting agencies after you receive your free annual credit report from any of them in response to a request made through this website. I believe the cost for Equifax specifically is $7.99 or $9.99.

The easiest and quickest method is the one outline above for accessing online. However, you can also write in or call:
