How To Remove Credit Inquiries in Australia 

Michael Mendoza has helped me repair my credit file so that I am able to get approved for a home loan without jumping through hoops. He was in contact every step of the way and kept me updated on what was happening. Highly recommend this company.

Every time you apply for a loan, it triggers a hard credit inquiry on your report, which is how the lender ascertains the level of risk in lending you the finances. However, did you know that a hard credit inquiry can lower your credit rating, making it more challenging to take out a future loan? 

Worse still, someone else might be fraudulently trying to get a line of credit in your name. Too many inquiries, even legitimate and innocuous, might negatively affect your score and suggest you’re a risk. 

So, what can you do? Here, we discuss removing credit inquiries and we step you through credit repair in Australia

When you can and can’t dispute enquiries on a credit report 

It is possible to remove credit enquiries in Australia, but not always. 

You can make a dispute in the following circumstances: 

  • The lender has opted out of the loan without your permission. 

  • Someone fraudulently accesses your Australian Taxation File Number (TFN) or similar high-level personal information and uses it to obtain a loan under your name. 

  • A credit card or loan you are unfamiliar with appears on your record. 

  • A credit bureau requested your report in error. 

  • You can prove that a credit investigation took place without your knowledge or permission.

  • You believe you were pressured into approving the credit pull. 

Any of these circumstances could result in your successful bid to clear your credit score

You might be surprised to learn that you cannot make a dispute in the following circumstances: 

  • The loan application on your credit record is legal. 

  • A mortgage broker shared your application with various lenders when you were exploring home loan options. 

  • You sought some home repairs and the vendor used your details to authorise a credit check. 

  • You knowingly applied for a loan, and the request appears on your credit report. 

Any of these circumstances make it challenging to achieve a credit score fix

FAQs about removing consumer credit enquiries

  • An inquiry happens when a lender checks your credit report to decide if they should lend you money. It's also called a hard credit check or credit application. They want to know if you're eligible, trustworthy, and if there's a risk in lending to you.

    This is different from a soft credit check, which typically occurs when you enquire about your credit report. A soft enquiry does not raise any red flags.

  • An enquiry of this nature can stay on your report for up to two years.
