Quite proud of myself that I remembered to come back here today to sign up.

Use free Google Calendar, put the credit reports on the calendar one every 4 months from the last time you pulled it, set it to repeat every 4 months and set up a reminder that will send you an email. There’s the flexibility that everyone desires.

Just cite adverse action and you can get a free credit report whenever you want.

I recommend that everyone get a free stickies program like Stickies v6.5a by ZHornSoftware (UK) and set it to remind you every 122 days. You can also tell it when to start reminding you.

I use the stickies program instead of a calendar program.

There’s a signup box in the post above, is it not visible?

A great idea/offer.

Problem for me, though, is that I’m a month past my 2nd pull of the year, so I’m mid-term and my next report doesn’t align with the order here.

Sure there is no way to customize this?

Crap…I just did my Equifax two and a half months ago….soooo I guess I just have to remember to sign up for this nine and a half months from now..

wait a minute..wasn’t my problem originally remembering in the first place? Crap, yet again.

This is a great idea. I ordered a credit report about six months ago (probably due to one of your posts) and have forgotten to keep up with the rotation. Obviously, I need the reminders!

Great timing on this post, I need to order mine tomorrow and I can never remember the correct gov link for the truly free service without having to google it.

It’s set to send you reminders in 122 days after you sign up, so unfortunately no… you can only control it by being selective about what day you sign up.
