First of all I don't know what 304 is because I'm on tapatalk, and it clearly is the wrong post. Second of all, because your answer was under the assumption that the person had 90 days of late payments

You asked "Would they?" and I said, "Who knows? Most loan issuers have flat-rate subscription access to soft pulls, so a hard would probably be a waste of time and/or money."

Why would it be a waste of time if they are considering shutting down said persons accounts?

I said coding and/or paying for a hard pull might be a waste of time and/or money if they already had a subscription for soft-pull access, as almost all loan issuers do.

Are you even reading the replies, or just posting new replies as fast as you can?

I'm driving at a point but you keep on derailing yourself. Let me spell it out for you. This statute which you keep quoting in your defense implies that a FI has a right to pull your credit when reviewing your account. The biggest time that would be true is when they are planning on shutting someone down. So why wouldnt they hard-pull the credit?! To save a couple of bucks? Seriously? They are reviewing your account to shut it down and according to you are legally allowed to hard-pull your credit. Don't you think they would take your credit report into consideration before they shut you down?

The statute doesn't "imply" it; it says it explicitly, in words the average fifth-grader would understand.

Of course. You realize a soft pull gives the bank most if not all of the same info., right?

Not exactly the same. There's a reason they do a hard pull when applying for new credit.

LOL. A soft pull gives enough info. for banks to make credit-related decisions, or else banks wouldn't be sending out credit offers based on soft pulls, would they?

When was the last time you had a preapproved! Offer based on a soft pull?

So now you're totally negating the difference between a soft and hard pull! OK so that's where the confusion lies

Then why would the banks waste their precious money on hard pulls when you apply for credit

To signify to other banks that the person has applied for credit, in part to subtly discourage competitors from doing the same at that particular point in time. As you probably know, banks don't like it when people get a lot of new credit at the same time.

Are you still sticking to your claim that people don't get preapproved offers based on soft pulls? That was a real howler.

Aside from retail stores, if a person has no experience with a particular lender, I don't know of any "preapproved" offers. IME

Mailboxes across America are filled with soft-pull preapprovals every day.

(And the "aside from retail stores" and "experience with a lender" both disprove your point, anyway. The idea that Amex or Citi will preapprove more credit for an existing customer with a soft pull but would need a hard to decide on an account shutdown is just utterly silly.)

Those are pre-something else. You are preapproved to apply. Please show me someone who got preapproved for an offer to a bank that they had never dealt with before.

Why is it silly to say that an existing customer has a credit portfolio with the lender already? The biggest proof is that if you ever get shut down by a bank, they will hold that information against you long after it falls off your credit report. And yes for a FULL REVIEW of an account you would need to do a hard pull

No, a lot of them are true preapprovals.

You think a bank needs more info. to shut an account down than to EXTEND MORE UNSECURED CREDIT?

LOL.

Yes. I believe that before a bank would shut someone down, they would want to review the full credit report. As opposed to an existing lender who has a certain relationship with the customer, that may decide to extend more credit. In what way is it unsecured?

So you actually *do* believe a bank would want more info. before lowering or eliminating a credit line than it would before extending MORE UNSECURED CREDIT?

Wow.

What do you mean, "In what way is it unsecured"? It seemed obvious we were taking about credit cards here. Banks don't "shut down" car loans before repossessing the vehicle; likewise, they don't "shut down" mortgages without maintaining their interest in the home. Were you referring to some other type of loan in your hypothetical, when you referred to someone defaulting on three loans with one bank?

(And regardless, you claimed the defaults never made it to the person's credit report, so why would the full report factor into the hypothetical shutdown? The bank wouldn't have any additional derogatory info. than it already had internally.)
