You are entitled to one free credit report per year. That is a consumer credit report and does not have credit scores.

I believe you can request a credit report with a credit score, however, then the credit bureau can charge. It is not a large charge, but, there is a cost.

Ask any of the credit bureaus. I 'm sure you can ask before you get charged.
Equifax
Experian
TransUnion

they'll try to get you signed up for all sorts of gimmicky stuff and you need to be careful. honestly, it's interesting to me why we all have to know our scores.

www.myfico.com is the only place for consumers to retrieve their FICO scores. Alternatively, a Loan Officer can provide you with your FICO scores, but you'll receive an Inquiry ding, resulting in decreased score, so it's not recommended unless you're serious about buying a car or house. The credit bureaus providing "consumer" scores, and they're generally higher then FICO scores.
