Questions about your credit

Advance America utilizes information obtained from third party credit bureaus to qualify applicants for a loan, and in many states, reports loan performance activity (on-time, missed payments, etc.) to the credit bureaus.

Please select your situation for additional information:

I was denied a loan with Advance America due to insufficient credit and believe this is inaccurate.

If you were denied a loan and have questions related to the accuracy of the credit information used to make this decision, you can request your credit report from the credit bureau. Advance America is unable to provide details related to your credit report, and you must contact the credit bureau directly to review your information. If you believe there is an error on your credit report, you have the right to dispute the error directly with the credit bureau.

First, take a look at the Adverse Action Notice received at time of loan denial. This notice will inform you of the credit bureau utilized to make the loan decision – either FactorTrust or Clarity. Once identified, follow the instructions below to pull your credit report.
