You can go online right now to a variety of different websites and view credit report history for your social security number. You can see everything that a lender or creditor would see if they ran your credit, plus other things. The question is why you need to spend your time doing this, not just right now but on a continual basis into the future as well. Just checking your name is even not good enough today. This is because there may be alias names listed for you on your credit report that you have never legally gone by. This is because advertisers and creditors may get your name wrong and when they file that name under your social security number it becomes connected to you. That is just one reason to check your history online. You can dispute wrong names.
