Just log in to the internet and search for free credit reporting agency or anything close to it. You will get a plethora of agencies advertising their services.

The tricky juncture is when you want to download your credit report. You will be shocked to be asked for your credit card details. If you provide, the next thing you realize is that some money will have been deducted for you to obtain the report. Some agencies are saying that if you are quick enough to cancel the process before the deduction is effected you can actually get the report free.
