Overall Rating: 4.1 / 5 (Excellent)

WalletHub is one of the better free credit reporting applications. The main differentiator here is the daily credit score and credit report. As far as we know, no other free credit reporting service does this. The company also does a really good job showing you in a clear, personalized, and easy to understand way exactly what factors are contributing to your credit score. However, when compared to applications like Mint which get into the minute transaction details of all your accounts, WalletHub is more general and big picture. Be that as it may, the company has an excellent reputation among users and its real time email, text, and mobile app alerts are particularly handy.

Credit Score & Reports

Report Details and Frequency - 4 / 5

WalletHub is the only online credit reporting service we are aware of that allows you to monitor changes to your score and report on a daily basis for free. Most services, especially free services, will update you monthly or quarterly. This is of particular interest to customers wanting to break down how their activities affect their credit in the most minute detail. WalletHub provides you with your TransUnion report, so if you want to monitor your Experian and Equifax score you'll have to look elsewhere. Additionally, as with so many online credit services, WalletHub uses the VantageScore model, not the official FICO score. Although many lenders are increasingly taking the VantageScore into account, the vast majority still use the official FICO score. This is why patrons of websites like WalletHub and Credit Karma are often surprised to discover the score they got from said website does not match the score used by whichever financial institution they are dealing with to get a loan, buy a car, etc.

Monitoring & Tools

Credit Bureau & Credit Scores - 4.5 / 5

WalletHub is a great, free tool for monitoring your credit report and credit score, and learning about personal finance overall. The company's credit analysis feature is a great way for customers to learn exactly what they need to do to improve their credit score. However, you will not have the ability to see what's happening within individual accounts. WalletHub also does not offer anything in the way of identity theft protection or dispute resolution, but this is common for free services. Finally, WalletHub's alerts are excellent for a free service, as they will notify you immediately of any change to your report via whichever method you select.

WalletHub Plans & Pricing

Plans and Pricing - 4 / 5

WalletHub is a totally free service. You will not need to provide any payment information and the credit inquiries will not affect your score. However, as with similar sites, by signing up you agree that information on your creditworthiness will be passed on to WalletHub's advertisers. You will be offered financial products customized to your credit score and report. If you sign up for one of these products, WalletHub then gets paid.
Free Report Offered?
Yes

WalletHub Reputation & Support

Monitoring and Extra Features - 4 / 5

Although WalletHub has an A grade with the BBB, this is only based on one review. The company, however, has a generally favorable reputation across other review sites and a solid Trustpilot score. Since WalletHub is a genuinely free service (they ask for no credit card or for you to purchase anything) you can never be charged monthly or yearly subscription fees without your consent, a common scam with "free credit report" websites. Customers who praise WalletHub cite the free daily score, free online tools, and handy alerts through text, email, and mobile app.

I am so happy to have consulted RAPID RESCORE CREDIT for my credit repairs. I discovered that I had 5 negative items on my credit most especially IRS, delayed payments and loans and over 7 hard inquiries from every bureaus and it hindered me from moving forward in my business. I could not access any loan so I started looking for ways to salvage my condition, I then discovered this specialist (RAPID RESCORE CREDIT) on reddit though there were other ones there but my instinct directed me towards Mr Jackson. I was asked for funds to get started with the job and I gave them the benefit of doubt and made some commitments. My fico score was moved from 609 to an excellent score (799) and all the...

When I got robbed at gun point 5 years ago they took my wallet with my driver’s license, social security card, and credit cards. A few years later a lot of false information started showing up on my credit report. I had no idea and didn’t know what to do. Then I met the JERRYLINK CREDIT GROUP. They got all the false information removed and my score is back to what it was before. The small nominal fee is well worth getting this resolved. They offer a consistent, professional, and an invaluable service that I highly recommend to anyone. Thank you Mr. Jerry. You can reach out to them via jerrylinkgroup AT gmail DOT com

I strongly recommend JERRYLINK CREDIT GROUP: I think they are the best in terms of credit repair. I had worked with different credit companies in the past, but there was no significant change on my credit report. So many credit forums recommended DYI, I tried every credit hack in the book all o no avail. A real estate agent introduced me to Mr. Jerry, who has been helping his clients. Mr. Jerry and his team helped me erase all the negative things on my report, and raised my score to excellent score across all three bureaus. I’m recommending as promised. They are available on gmail: JERRYLINKGROUP AT GMAIL DOT COM.

Hey! Are you looking to fix your poor credit? In order to qualify for better rates, or get higher credit limits. I will strongly recommend 760Plus Credit Score; they are fast, secure and reliable. They came through for me, while I was in dire need of a miracle. Helped me erase all the irregularities on my report and my score went up by almost 200 points. And I think it’s permanent, it’s been three days and nothing is coming back. You should reach out to them today if you are in need of a credit fix via 760pluscreditscore at gmail dot com.

What can I say; I’m really impressed with their service. After using ovation for a while without any impact, I decided to give JERRYLINK CREDIT GROUP a try. I’m blown away with their service! I can’t believe they deleted all my collections and raised my credit score. I’m at 780 credit score and I applied for a credit card which was approved with a credit line of $5k and our dream of owning a house will come true soon. Before this, I’ve never had a credit card limit higher than $300.I strongly recommend their services. You can reach out to them via JERRYLINKGROUP at GMAIL dot COM

Lexington is a rip-off; I worked with them for almost 2 years with the aim of qualifying for a mortgage at the end of last year. But my target was not met and with last year gone without any tangible achievement, I lost my confidence in them. I tried every hack in the book but nothing changed. A realtor introduced me to (metronet credit solution) an expert who had been helping his clients. They helped me raise my score to 740; I was able to qualify for a home loan. I’m recommending their services on every forum as promised. You can contact them via mail: metronetcreditsolution AT gmail DOT com or whatsapp: + 1 6 2 6 5 1 4 0 6 2 0

My name is Gabriel DeRobertis; I’m a waiter here in Norcross Georgia. I went through a messy divorce which left my credit bleeding. My wife was giving custody of our daughter and I was told to pay for child support monthly. With my credit ruined and my low income, paying for child support was like a huge weight on me. I applied for a loan several times and all were declined due to my poor credit score. I met Angela, a customer who noticed I was always moody. She approached me, we talked and she offered to help me. She introduced me to a credit guru (760Plus Credit Score). She assured me that my problems would be solved by them. I made some commitments and within 11days of contacting them,... Read More

Bouncing Back From Bankruptcy!!! Bouncing back from bankruptcy can be a bit dicey! I filed chapter 7 a year ago, my assets were liquidated and used to settle most of my debts, while most of the remaining debts were discharged. I found out to my dismay that my credit score had dropped drastically. I tried almost every card company but didn’t get approved, some interest rate were so outrageous that I had to decline. I was practically living from hand to mouth. A neighbor of mine recommended METRONET CREDIT SOLUTION a credit specialist who had helped him in the past. I contacted them and they helped me remove all the negatives from my credit report (including bankruptcy)! And raised my... Read More

A key aspect of your financial life is your credit score. Higher credit scores increase your chances of being approved for loans and credit cards with the best terms, which will save you a lot of money and hassle. You're not alone if your credit score isn't where you want it to be. Of course, there are actions you can do to raise your credit score, such as making on-time payments on your bills and clearing previous debts. But due to the current economic conditions throughout the world, raising your credit score by making on-time payments on your bills and paying off existing debts may take an eternity. If you're determined to put an end to the horror (bad credit score), then I strongly... Read More
