Why is my credit ratingscore brought down for getting car insurance quotes? | |
I'm trying to get auto and renter's insurance and I do not understand why my credit score is brought down because of this. Can't they tell I'm not our trying to get several credit cards or lines of credit or loans? How can this be dealt with and changed or stopped? If this is going to happen, how will my credit look in two years when I am ready to buy a newer vehicle?
Answers:
1When someone runs your credit, you lose 4 points from the agency they use. When several people pull your credit within a set number of days, it is assumed that you are shopping and you lose only 1 point for each search after the first one. So if, in one day, 6 companies pull your credit from Equifax, you will lose 9 points from your Equifax score.
