Factual Data provides credit information from Consumer Reporting Agencies (CRAs) to its clients, which are primarily banks, mortgage companies and other lending institutions that have a permissible purpose under the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) to obtain credit information for lending purposes. Factual Data does not maintain a database of consumer information. We may assist you if one of our clients accessed your credit report through Factual Data.
If a Factual Data client requested a copy of your credit report through our system and you would like a copy of it, please contact us by fax, mail or phone. For the most up-to-date version of your credit report, please contact TransUnion®, Experian®, or Equifax® directly or visit annualcreditreport.com.
Factual Data can help you understand any information on your Factual Data credit report and answer questions you have about the credit report. Please reach out to us with questions.
Credit scores are produced by FICO® and are based off of information that appears on your credit report, such as amounts owed, length of credit history, new credit, payment history, types of credit used, types of inquiries and public record information. Although you cannot dispute a credit score specifically, you can dispute inaccurate or incomplete information that is appearing on your credit report. For additional information regarding scores, please visit www.myfico.com.

Call toll-free 1-888-5-OPTOUT (1-888-567-8688)
Visit www.optoutprescreen.com
Opting out has no effect on your credit score or your ability to apply for or obtain credit or insurance.
Requests to opt out are processed within five days, but it may take longer in certain instances before you stop receiving pre-screen offers. Please note, Factual Data does not process these requests.
Even though your request becomes effective within five days of your request, you may not see an immediate reduction in the amount of offers you receive. This is because your name may have already been provided to some companies that have not yet mailed their offers to you.
While your name will be removed from the lists that credit repositories provide to businesses for the purpose of making you a firm offer of credit or insurance, you may continue to receive offers from sources that do not use Consumer Credit Reporting Companies to compile their lists.
