Everybody has credit and they all make the payments on it to ensure that it does not escalate beyond control. One way to do this is to get a copy of your credit report which will give you your credit score. This score represents your financial situation and your repayment tendency. This score is required if you want to get approval for a mortgage or go in for a car loan or any other loan for that matter.

By knowing your credit status you can save yourself a lot of embarrassment and the possibility of getting rejected outright. A bad score means you probably won’t get the loan you are looking for. It is this score that the loan agencies or companies look at and it tells them whether you are a good customer or whether you will probably be a cause of heartache as far as they are concerned. They would rather not touch you if they think you are a potential risk and they will carry out an in-depth background check on your financial condition.

A score that reads something like 700-800 is considered very good and 650 is considered an average score. Anything lower and your chance of approval for credit cards, mortgages and car loans becomes really difficult. If you have a copy of your credit score you can ensure that there are no mistakes in it and if there are any, you can get them sorted out before you try for a loan. This will help in you not getting turned down.

There are websites available on the Internet which can get you your credit score like http://turkiyespot.com/http://turkiyespot.com/equifax.com</a></a> among others. There are lots of online companies that will do the job for you or you can go directly to the government site which has all your records on tap so to speak. Free copies may not be complete as far as all the details are concerned and they may prove a little difficult to understand as all the points may not be fully explained. So it is better to pay a little fee and get a fully loaded credit report that you know for a fact is accurate and detailed. This gives you a better picture as to how credit companies view you and how good your standing will be with them in case you want a loan. It also gives you the chance to iron out and fix any problems so your credit rating goes up again.

Now that you have all the information you need about your financial condition (you may have found some surprises in it that you never expected) and once you get the score up to a good level rather than an average one, you can go ahead with your plans for the car loan or the mortgage or credit card.
