Check Your Credit with Equifax Canada Inc.

Columbia Valley Credit Union recommends that everyone check their own credit report at least once a year. Building and maintaining a good credit history not only involves paying bills on time, but also requires resolving any inaccuracies that may appear on your credit report.

Equifax Canada Inc. receives your credit information directly from the financial institutions and retail outlets you use. The information is compiled in a credit report that lenders refer to whenever you apply for credit or loans. Lenders look at whether you made your payments on time and consistently.
