When you apply for loans and credit, the potential creditor usually pulls a credit report is usually pulled from TransUnion, Experian, and Equifax. The report contains your personal information along information on how you have been handling your credit for the past 7 to 10 years. This information can legally be given to all potential lenders and creditors who want to see your credit history prior to lending.
