So we have been noticing something lately, when we pull a credit report on a client they have been telling us that other companies have been calling them to say they see they are refinancing and try to push them into working with them. Well, as you can imagine, this ticks us off a bit.
So we called the company we pull credit reports through and learned, to our amazement, that Experian, Equifax and Transunion all sell this data to people so they can call you as soon as they see we pull a report. Can you say unethical? This is absolutely unacceptable in our minds. You can, as the consumer, opt out of them being able to do this. But it is, conveniently, a pain to do. We are looking further into this and will let you know what we find. But be aware that if this happens to you it is not a company we "work" with or endorse.
