k12503 Posted August 5, 2003 Report Share Posted August 5, 2003 I have almost 30 inquiries within the last two months on my equifax report from consumerinfo. com. However, I am not signed up wih them. Upon investigating, I finally found out that the inquiries were made on behalf of Privacyguard but no one can explain why consumerinfo comes up on the report and not Privacyguard. Privacyguard claims they don't use consumerinfo.com yet consumerinfo. com says otherwise!I am nervous because I don't know if it will affect my score. Equifax claims it won't but I am not so sure. Inquiries on EQUIFAX that do not affect the credit score tend to have and abbreviation- AR, EQ etc. in front of them. These consumerinfo.com inquiries do not. Should I request that Equifax remove these inquires or should I just let it rest? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raimondi65 Posted August 5, 2003 Report Share Posted August 5, 2003 Whenever I pull Privacyguard consumerinfo does show up on my reports. I pull it daily. That should be a soft inquiry and that will not hurt your score. I don't think you have anything to worry about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FICOfocused Posted August 5, 2003 Report Share Posted August 5, 2003 FYI - I had the same question as you re: the consumer info inq. not having that abbreviation on it, and I called them to confirm it was a soft inquiry. It was. Don't worry As for PG not claiming to have any relationship with Consumer info, I have no idea what that is all about. Mine has always come up as Consumer info when I pull PG. But, It is not affecting your score so don't worry about it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
