Equifax Core Credit - Soft Pull info!

[calyx]

I don't know how many people have signed up for Core Credit by Equifax yet, but when you look at your credit report on their site, they list the softpull information just after the HPs, which is super nice for those of us who like to look at that info.

Be careful... the fine print at the bottom of my email says that signing up for Core Credit costs you your two free credit reports per year. 

It’s cool that they give you the SP info though, maybe I’ll think about getting it.

Yeah, I debated signing up, but now that my EQ file is clean, I don't mind giving up the free ones.  The only real info I was getting that I needed was my DOFD, and that's not a problem any more.

As it is, after having some issues with them, they've been really nice about sending me more free reports than I would normally get, anyway.

Yeah now that my EQ is clean, I’m thinking about it too.

Oops I signed up without seeing that. I don't see how thats legal since annualcreditreport is governed by a federal law. I guess I will find out in a month when I can pull my report again.

How is the one year determined for annualcreditreport. If I pulled last year on 6/22/18  do I have to wait until 6/23/19?

Or can I pull on 6/1/19?

Also I don't think the list of soft pulls is complete. I have a comprehesive report (like the one from annual) that I got as a result of being denied credit. It shows every single time I tried the Capital One prequal site. The Core Credit/myEquifax soft pulls don't list those. 

I do like the fact that they make it easy to freeze. They even asked me if I wanted to convert my "lock" to a "freeze"

Interesting.

I just did a side by side and the only ones missing from mine are my Citi pulls (for their BC score that's on the last or second to last Tuesday of the month).  The rest are all there (including the cap1 pulls that I tried for their auto financing prequal site).

As far as the annualcreditreport.com - I just did my annual pulls last month, and they were actually a little early, but within the same month as the previous year, so I don't think they're super-super strict about the 365d.

DOFD is shown in the monthly reports. I just checked one of my older student loan accounts. Would love to get that retroactive forbearance lol. One can dream!

That clause is not referring to the annualcreditreport.com annual pulls.
