Credit Bureaus

Credit Bureau Contact Information:

Credit Bureaus collect information and data on consumer credit behavior. They collect from all types of financial institutions where credit is extended such as banks, car finance companies, mortgage companies, and wireless companies for loans, or general extension of credit.

In addition to the business of selling data back to consumers as credit reports and credit scores, the credit bureaus also sell this information to financial institutions and banks so they can market to consumers.
