Why It's So Important To Monitor Your Credit
- Walter Burch, Editor-in-Chief of CreditLearningCenter.com reports on why it is important to monitor credit. One of the most important things you can do as a consumer to get the credit you deserve, and help protect yourself against identity theft, is to monitor your credit. A new law (FACTA) allows consumers to receive a free credit report each year from each of the three credit bureaus via the website www.annualcreditreport.com In addition to yearly credit monitoring, CreditLearningCenter.com recommends daily credit monitoring. Daily monitoring provides consumers with the convenience of daily email alerts whenever key changes appear on any one of three credit reports. For more information on monitoring changes to your three credit reports every day, you can visit www.creditlearningcenter.com.
