    I further understand that by submitting this registration form I am authorizing Credit Karma, once it has obtained my credit score for me, to retain a copy of such credit score in its records along with the other information I am submitting through this registration form (collectively, the "Registration Profile"), and to use that Registration Profile to match me with product and services offers from time to time from its marketing partners, which offers it will send to me either by e-mail (only if I opt-in via email preferences) or through the display of banner ads. I understand that Credit Karma will not be sharing my Registration Profile with any of those marketing partners and that it is completely up to me to decide whether I would like to accept any of the offers I receive, in which case I would deal directly with the marketing partners at issue.

    Uh, no thank you!

    You see, there ALWAYS has to be a catch when it comes to those "free" things.

    By rating if you mean your FICO score then yes.

    I actually posted a gov't site on here a couple of years ago that Dave Ramsey recommended. On that one you actually can check your credit, for free, once a year. I forgot what it was. I'll try to locate it tomorrow.

    I've been using Credit Karma for about a year now free of charge. Its a really great site. I think they switched from Transunion score reporting to Equifax recently.
