All 3 credit bureaus have to send you a report for free each year if you request it. There are 3 ways to get this, download a form, fill it out and mail it in, call by phone or request it online, of these requesting online is the easiest way to get your one time credit report.

Now that you have your report let’s look at some quick fixes to improve your credit using your one time credit report.
* Use credit cards sparingly; over use, even if paid down each month can lower your credit. Paying down the balance will help your credit.
* Ensure the limit listed for each card is your actual limit. If any are lower then what it is supposed to be have them corrected by the credit card company as this will help your credit. Use any older cards you have not used in awhile as card companies sometimes quit updating your credit if a card is inactive for a period.
* Some creditors are willing to remove that late payment you just happened to miss if you have a good history with them.
* Examine this one time credit report closely. Look for bad items such as anything that is not yours. And anything older then 7 years or ten for bankruptcies.
Mail these along with letters of explanation in to the credit agencies to have them eliminated.
Mistakes often made; having credit lines reduced is often thought to help, however it reduces debt/credit ratio. Having accounts consolidated; having more small balances is more beneficial then 1 large balance. It is unwise to try for additional credit, more so if you have what you need.
