Review Your Credit Report:
We recommend that you review your credit reports annually. It
is common to find errors on your report. The amended Fair
Credit Reporting Act permits consumers to request a free copy of
their credit report once every 12 months from each of the three
major credit reporting agencies (Equifax, Experian, and
TransUnion). You can visit the FDIC website for information
about requesting these reports:
