A new solution from CoreLogic Credco was designed to help auto dealers efficiently prequalify potential customers via soft-pull credit reports and scores from all three national credit bureaus.
The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) this week took action against Equifax and TransUnion, ordering the two credit reporting agencies and their subsidiaries to pay more than $17.6 million in restitution for deceiving consumers about the usefulness and actual cost of credit scores they sold to consumers. The two firms were also ordered to pay $5.5 million in fines to the regulator.
Any entity that feeds a consumer reporting agency is considered a ‘data furnisher’ by the CFPB and must be aware of three credit reporting factors that can’t be overlooked.
An online, soft-pull prequalification process could help dealers sell more cars faster and satisfy new demands from consumers and regulators.
