Here is a promo for free myfico score. http://www.myfico.com/products/scorewatch/freetrial.aspx I hadn't looked at my score, well forever. I had payment problems when i was in college, and well haven't wanted to look at the effects of my behavior. I have a score of 644 through equifax. On Equifax my date of birth i wrong, and it has 2 old address on the form. Credit History of 10 years 6 months.

What's my first step? Get the other credit reports? Ask for them to remove the addresses? Send Dispute letters for accounts with the negative attached to them? something else? Appreciate all your help, thanks!
I'm somewhat in the same boat. I have already opted out and I have 2 of the 3 in print. The last one, TU, is on its way. My question is how do you start the process, do I ask the CRAs for verification or do I ask the OC or CA?
