How can a person improve their scores at each credit bureau?
A person can improve their scores at each credit bureau by monitoring their credit reports at each bureau, paying their bills on time, living within their means, guarding against fraudulent use, and keeping accounts updated.
How would someone monitor their own credit?
There are three large credit bureaus that people can use to keep an eye on their credit: Equifax, TransUnion, and Experian. Each bureau has its own credit score. Therefore, people monitoring their credit should check each. Depending on which bureau is checked, the score may be different.
How do you build your credit score?
One way you can build your credit score is to get a credit card and either a) use it responsibly, or b) don't use it all. If your balance is $0 at the end of the month, it registers to the credit bureau a payment made on time.
Is there any way to find out which credit card companies check your credit with Equifax instead of Transunion?
Generally only when you apply and are declined, the credit card company will tell you which credit bureau was used so you can receive a free report. Just so you know, there is a third option for them to check with also, Experian. Its just not a choice between the two you've mentioned... Some creditors will tell which credit bureau they use ,if you just ask prior to you applying for credit.
Where can one find information about the company Teletrak?

If you have several entries for the same account by different collectors on your credit report can you dispute these and have them removed?
Yes, you can. If you are attempting to get a loan, possibly, the company you are working with can do this for you with the credit servicer they use. If not, then you can order your credit report and then turn around and dispute it with the credit bureau stating duplicate entry and they have 30 days in which to verify this and then remove it from your credit report.
What does it mean when you are preselected for a credit card?
That's just a term that marketers use. They buy your name and personal information from a credit bureau or from another business, and mail you a notice saying that you can apply for their credit card. You still have to be approved once you apply. There are normally a lot of asterisks, footnotes or "terms and conditions" clauses in small print that you should read. Applying for credit, whether or not you ever use it, can affect your credit rating.
What circumstances can you receive more than one free credit report per year from a credit bureau?
Can't really. (Maybe if you sign up for a free trial of their online credit monitoring service you could. Or you use a third party site, like Credit Karma. But too many hits can look bad (even though they're not credit-related)
