Find out how to track your credit score monthly and get tips to improve it.
Is getting control of your finances part of your current goals ? In order to do so, its important to have the right tools.
For several years now, I have been using Credit Sesame. It tracks your credit score every month and it also gives you real time alerts on credit activities. It lets you know if things have happened that have impacted your credit rating positively or negatively. The service is absolutely FREE.
Besides giving you your credit score and related information, it can also do things like analyze how much you are paying for your mortgage and determine if you might be able to get a better rate, show what your credit usage is, give suggestions for improvement, etc.
Included Credit Sesame Benefits:
* Receive daily credit monitoring alerts (If wanted – you can get them less frequently)
* Get your FREE Credit Score Monthly
* Limit ID Theft Damage
* Find Potential Errors Sooner
* Get Access to Better Loans and Save Money
You can sign up with Credit Sesame HERE. There are a few steps involved in the sign-up process but, in my opinion, it is definitely worth it!
My Credit Sesame Experience:
I actually signed up separately for both myself and for my husband. Although almost all of our accounts are joint, we still have some slight differences and, therefore, our credit scores are also different.
By each signing up we can get a better and more complete picture of our credit status. We have been with Credit Sesame for almost ten years now and we continue to regularly visit our accounts to stay on top of our current credit ratings.
How do you stay on top of your financial status?
