BUT...

Can anyone run a credit check on you without your knowledge/permission?  How many credit checks are run on you also affects your score ...

To the OP -- please try to follow up with this company -- as said above, they have your personal info.

It saddens me to see what this industry -- and this country -- have reduced themselves to.  There is no integrity, honesty or work ethic any more.
