sources for free annual credit report?

[firstbaby]

I know 20/20 recently gave the web site to receive a free credit report once a year but I missed it - any one happen to have it? TIA!

Here you go. I've ordered one through them before and can vouch that this is indeed the place to get them for free.

This from CR:

The official site for free credit reports, http://www.annualcreditreport.com , can be difficult to use. Plus, while you're clicking around for information, it's easy to get sidetracked by sites such as www.freecreditreport.com, run by Experian, which recently settled bait-and-switch charges with the Federal Trade Commission for pushing “free� reports tied to the purchase of an expensive credit-monitoring service. An easy alternative to going online is to call 877-322-8228.

HTH!

here is a tip. Since you get one free from each agency per year, do them one at a time. That allows you to check your credit once every 4 months for free.
