Consumer Narrative
I was at an auto dealer and the dealer was interested in my credit reports. I unlocked my XXXX and XXXX reports ( as requested ). Instead of using these reports which showed my credit score in the XXXX 's, they requested funding from XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX. This bank got a credit report from a company called XXXX XXXX XXXX. XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX. The score given by XXXX XXXX was XXXX. The reasons given for this ( low ) SCORE were the following ; Limited history for consumer at this phone. I have had this phone number since XXXX. Length of residence short. I have lived here witha mortgage since XXXX. Too few active accounts, actually more accounts ( all in good standing ) than I have space for here. Limited credit history. I'm XXXX y/o. started paying into SS at age XXXX. My question : How can this company ( now associated with XXXX ) Give an important credit score without doing their homework? Basically they are lying to XXXXXXXX XXXX by misrepresenting my credit history. Did they check with XXXX of the XXXX XXXX?
