I am concerned by the fact that I have NEVER received a FREE Credit report from Equifax ... I have had to PAY for them ... and on an ON GOING Basis. WHY IS THIS? This was the only way I could receive it online. Is that standard practice? I was so desperate to see what my report looked like I DID Pay, both my dad and I. Once for {$15.00} on XXXX 2015 AND again on XXXX/XXXX/2015. The site said " Failed '' and the only way I could get it was by PAYING For it! XXXX XXXX TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED ) I want to know why I could not have access to my report without having to PAY for it, more than {$30.00} in less than a XXXX month period? 
And Possibly be reimbursed since I never received a XXXX Copy this Year. 

Thank you!
