9. CREDIT CHECKS AND IMPACT ON YOUR SCORE
Credit Reference Agencies
When you make an application with us we may use your details to carry out a search with credit reference agency CENTRIX for the purpose of assessing your credit score in connection with your application for finance. To remove the impact on your credit score CarPow carry out a Finance Quotation search and not a credit application.
Depending on the lending option we utililise the lenders will also often require the right to carry out their own checks also. We make no guarantees that those searches won’t make any change to your credit profile.
