Consumers can request a free copy of their report annually. In addition, we will reinvestigate any information that we maintain which you believe is inaccurate and will correct any such information that is determined to be inaccurate or incomplete.

The Fair Credit Reporting Act (the “FCRA”) allows Alliant to include your name and address on prescreen lists used by creditors or insurers for sending you unsolicited offers of credit or insurance.  If you would like your name and address to be removed from such prescreen lists for 5 years—”beginning 5 business days after the date Alliant receives your request”—please fill out the form.
