Your credit report is a report card on your credit activity. While you can get a free copy of your credit report from many sources, not all credit reports are the same and not all sources provide full information.

With so many free report providers, how do you know which one is accurate? My guest today stresses it's important to first understand what's actually on your credit report. Then you can take action to deal with any errors and omissions.

Meg Penstone is a certified credit counsellor at Hoyes Michalos and has over 20 years of experience helping people with financial difficulty. She's also an expert on credit reports.

On today’s show we also discuss the problem with “free” credit reports.
