I know I can get a free credit report, but what about the score?

The only true free credit report(s) come from
annualcreditreport.com

They usually do not include the credit score. Be cautious of any sites offer free credit reports or score. Read all details and lookup the site on a search engine to see if it is misleading or not.

The true way I am aware of to get a credit score is to apply for credit and get rejected. The credit institution is required to provide an Adverse Action report. The newly enacted Dodd–Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act – Pub.L. 111-203, H.R. 4173 – include a credit score disclosure rule, which should provide you with the credit score they used to determine credit eligibility and credit worthiness.
