[Updated] Automatic counting of inquiries for B*

[fusioncredit]

I'm in OK so I guess C* might be coming Saturday. BUT I'm at 90 softs. Why haven't I seen any B*??? My oldest hard is 02/22/10.

 

That's odd...after pulling yesterday I noticed I had B* 1 hard inquiry from EQ and TU and now I am down to 78 softs so I don't know if I will get to bump anymore before I get chopped today or tomorrow.

Thanks spigot! I am finally a clean, mean, running machine on EQ!!!! Its been months since I seen this. EQ is going on lock down ASAP!

1 more hard removed from EQ I wish I could bump more before choppage. Now that I have 3 daily pullers I will be able to B* the remaining EQ inquiries before the next choppage in March.

[JWBurns]

My last three daily pulls have returned the same number, 83. What gives?

 

I pull Smart Credit, Credit Karma, MPM, USAA, and EQ Complete.

Sounds like you're bumping off older soft inquiries.

I just checked and your right, I sure am. CREDITEXPERT is the one that's bumping old softs.

 

What does this mean and how do I correct?

[Repairerer]

Expected; nothing to correct.

[JWBurns]

Expected; nothing to correct.

 

Ok so just keep pulling like normal? I guess it will stop at some point?

Yup...the older softs will be bumped off with any hards that get bumped off. I went from 9 hards down to 3 in the last couple days If I don't get chopped then I will have 0 tomorrow

Dont want to sound like a noob but how do you even use this??

[Dplymkr88]

JWBurns, I've never heard of Smart Credit before, there is no conflict with MPM and USAA? Is it a daily? Sorry guys didn't mean to hijack the thread.

[ugghh]

I am crossing my fingers that C* won't happen for a few more days. I only had a few to get rid of but MPM and EC gave me hell last month!

So having a tough time trying to figure this out. So the best way would be to just copy the softs and open this new counter in Firefox and it should work fine then?

 

Thanks!

I could be wrong, but I believe the only way to get it properly formatted is if you are pulling from EC. If you are pulling your soft's from the Equifax backdoor, I believe you must manually format it. To do, so, just remove everything but Who pulled and the date.

Total "good" softs found: 87

Am I bumping soft inqs now? I noticed I have a couple of soft inqs "stuck" from 2011, is this normal?

[v8envy]

Under Uncounted softs, it shows creditexpert? which service is this? also it is not counting my equifax complete pulls?

Yeah I get them from EC. Been using 3 pullers now and every time it says only 5 good softs found.

Why is the counter not counting my USAA pulls?

[Take Action]

Are there any softs that don't count for TU? Searched and couldn't find anything

 

i asked about this before and the ones that do count will say "permissable purpose"

 

i had a bunch that didn't count

Any progress on the TU counter? I am in progress on my first B* with TU, so I could offer sample data, but I don't know what softs count. Running CK, SC, MPM (doesn't count right) and have a few lendingclubs.

[Take Action]

Good question. I'm locked out of the EQ backdoor currently, and too afraid to try again because I don't want any early C* this month. I use EQ complete to get my soft inquiries, but maybe someone with access to the EQ backdoor could give you some info. If I remember correctly, you just click on "Inquiries in the Last 2 Years" and they're under your hard inquiries.

OMG: Does the backdoor graduate you from C* to C*-squared?

If you could PM me your softs, I'll definitely give it a try. I've received a few copies of TU softs from a few members, but nothing that's countable yet.

Without a copy of your pulls, it's impossible to know.
