Countdown to when Experian removes statement about employers using scores
Return here to find out when Experian removed its statement that employers use credit scores.
Here is the statement:
“Credit scoring helps potential lenders, landlords, and employers quickly gauge an applicant’s credit history.”
At the bottom of the page Experian implores, “Contact Us - If this doesn’t answer your question please contact us.”
By all means, contact them.
The domains qspace.com and iplace.com are part of Experian’s out-of-control pile of web addresses.

You state, ”Credit scoring helps potential lenders, landlords, and employers quickly gauge an applicant’s credit history.”

What is the name of an employer who uses credit scores?
