Consumer Narrative
On XXXX I went into XXXX XXXX Car dealer in XXXX XXXX, Alabama to inquire about leasing a Jeep, after lengthy conversation With salesman ... decided to try for one and was told it would only require 1 credit pull ... as I waited to see I started getting multiple alerts that my credit was being pulled, went into sales office and asked what was going on and was informed they turned down the lease and they were running my credit with lenders for purchase ...

I never signed or filled out an app for purchase nor did unauthorized any type of credit pulls for this, sales said they just thought I would want this and admitted fault ... said they would reverse the inquiries but have not done it yet... They had no buisness playing with my social this way and asked me to leave there buisness when I busted them on it... there is nothing in the form of paper work as I signed nothing
