What is the safest most accurate way to find out about past debt?

I'm thinking I have some debt that is unpaid from years ago. I have not received any other bills in the mail. But know that I have small debts out there. What is the safest best way to find that information out so I can pay them?

You can get 1 free credit report a year. That is the best way to get your report. Contact them directly- don't go through anyone else to obtain your credit. DON'T go to freecreditreport.com- it's only free if you sign up for their credit monitoring program. Go to http://www.annualcreditreport.com

By law, you may request one free credit report from each of the three major reporting agencies - Transunion, Experian, and Equifax - each year. It's best to spread out the requests, so you can see how your credit evolves throughout the year. You will have to pay a small fee, about $8, to view your credit score, but be careful not to get sucked into any other promotion or "free" offer that quietly charges you $20 a month after the trial period. These programs can be helpful but are generally unnecessary.
