How to acquire a free credit report from each of the major credit bureaus?

Wednesday, January 6th, 2010
florance asked:


I heard on CNN Headline News that you can obtain one free credit report per year from each of the 4 major credit bureaus.

Does anyone know the names of each credit bureau, the number to call (or address) and what you need to do to get a copy of your credit report?

Caitlin asked:


I am looking at colleges and one of the cost calculators told me to ask how many credit hours per semester. I tried just putting in 17 and then i thought you get 17 credit hours per day. There is almost an 18000 dollar difference and i just need help understanding this college credit thing. Anyone who gives me a really good answer with a reliable, checkable source will get 10 pts.

How can one use their credit cards to invest without the investment qualifying as a cash advance?

Monday, December 7th, 2009
Michael P asked:

Everybody knows using a credit card at the ATM or bank will qualify the transaction as a cash advance and cash advances carry a rather high rate. However today I heard a bit on the news;how to make money off of the credit card companies rather than them making it off of you. It featured some investment guru who talked about using available balances on credit cards for investments that have a higher rate of return than the credit card carries. I have a 0% until July 2007 with plenty to invest if I decided to do this, but how would I avoid the cash advance rate if it would be regarded as cash? Are there any investments that would list the transaction as a purchase? Please help, I am confused.

How high can my credit score climb if I have only credit cards in my credit history?

Sunday, August 30th, 2009
leanora asked:


My current credit score is 745 and I’ve built it solely by using credit cards and paying on time (but never had any loans). Somebody told me that the abscence of installement-paid loan will prevent my score from climbing much higher. Is it true? Should I take some consumer loan to boost my credit score since I am planning to apply for a mortgage in the near future?
