The Equifax credit bureau supplies information when it is requested. Whenever you make an application for credit, a loan, a mortgage, life insurance or even some jobs, you are giving permission for your personal information and credit history to be sent to this applicant. Your Equifax credit report contains your name, date of birth, address, social security number, place of employment and any debt history you have.
The Equifax credit bureau is a for profit company and charges a fee every time they submit your information whether to you or to a financial company to apply to for credit of some kind. It is important for you to review your Equifax credit report on a regular basis, preferably twice a year. One reason to review your credit report is to ensure that the information is accurate. If there are mistakes on your report it could mean you would not qualify for a loan or credit line you need. Another good reason to regularly check your credit report is to verify that nobody else is using your identification for fraudulent activity. This is a very common crime that everyone should be constantly on guard for.
