      True North Mortgage Agent ******************* performed a credit check on my husband and me without written authorization from either of us. This has negatively affected our credit score and we would like him to be held accountable.

      Business Response

      Hi *****,

      We appreciate your contact and understand you have concerns about a credit check performed with your mortgage application.

      Credit check consent was provided with your initial application submitted through our website at ******** *** ** **********. But we typically wont perform a credit check before talking with you and checking your information.

      We reached out to your mortgage broker. In speaking with you over the phone, he was under the impression you wanted to proceed with your application, which is why he went ahead to help expedite your process (the form was completed with the details needed for lender approval).

      We regret any confusion and apologize for your stress in dealing with this matter. We are reviewing our process in light of your situation and will make necessary adjustments in an effort to address your experience.

      Please be assured that your credit standing is minimally impacted by a lender mortgage check, even if you have poor credit (with virtually no impact in applying for credit if you have good or excellent credit).

      Unfortunately, we lack the authorization to make any direct adjustments to your credit report.

      Please feel free to contact me to discuss further, or if theres anything we can help with.

      Sincerely,

      *********************************

BBB asks third parties who publish complaints, reviews and/or responses on this website to affirm that the information provided is accurate. However, BBB does not verify the accuracy of information provided by third parties, and does not guarantee the accuracy of any information in Business Profiles.

    When considering complaint information, please take into account the company's size and volume of transactions, and understand that the nature of complaints and a firm's responses to them are often more important than the number of complaints.

    BBB Business Profiles generally cover a three-year reporting period, except for customer reviews. Customer reviews posted prior to July 5, 2024, will no longer be published when they reach three years from their submission date. Customer reviews posted on/after July 5, 2024, will be published indefinitely unless otherwise voluntarily retracted by the user who submitted the content, or BBB no longer believes the review is authentic. BBB Business Profiles are subject to change at any time. If you choose to do business with this company, please let them know that you checked their record with BBB.

    As a matter of policy, BBB does not endorse any product, service or business. Businesses are under no obligation to seek BBB accreditation, and some businesses are not accredited because they have not sought BBB accreditation. BBB charges a fee for BBB Accreditation. This fee supports BBB's efforts to fulfill its mission of advancing marketplace trust.
