What is 3-bureau credit monitoring?

Monitor your credit report with all three credit bureaus

Worried about fraud or identity theft? You may want to keep a close eye on your credit report. This can easily be accomplished by signing up with a three-bureau credit monitoring service.

Information is not shared between the three major credit reporting agencies, so it is possible that something will show up on one agency report but not all three.

This is why it can be important to monitor your credit as seen by all three bureaus. This is something that can be accomplished by going to one site and requesting copies of all three credit reports. There is no need to go to each individual credit reporting agencies to get each credit report.
