Common Sense Tools for Managing Your Credit
Credit Score provides a holistic view of your credit score, allowing you to gain a clear understanding of managing your credit. Credit score events help you visualize the relationship of your credit score with payment history, usage, or opening & closing of accounts. Use the credit score simulator to see the potential impact of opening new accounts or paying off balances. This interactive tool will simulate your credit scores before you actually take any actions.
Try out the simulator to see what might happen if:
-
- Pay off a credit card
- Take out a new loan
- Miss a payment

Prevent Fraud & Identity Theft
Credit Score monitors your credit report daily and informs you by email if there are any big changes detected such as: a new account being opened, change in address or employment, if a delinquency has been reported or an inquiry has been made. Monitoring helps users keep an eye out for identity theft.
If you think that some of the information is wrong or inaccurate, we encourage you to take advantage of obtaining a free credit report from Annual Credit Report.com, and then pursuing each bureau individually. Each bureau has its own process for correcting inaccurate information, but every user can “File a Dispute” by clicking he “Dispute” link within their SavvyMoney Credit Report.
However, The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau website offers step-by-step instructions on how to contact the bureaus and correct errors.

I got an email alerting me that I had applied for credit. I logged into online banking and checked the alerts. The alert said that I had applied for a credit card at Capital One on Sunday. I had not applied for a credit card. In the FAQ it told me how to contact the three credit bureaus. I went to each one, set up an account and put a fraud alert on my credit. I am now working on getting the inquiry removed.
Without this service, I would not have known that someone had stole enough of my identity to apply for credit.
