Hard Inquiry for refinance advertised as favorable
Options

Posts: 1 Newbie
Experian suggested a refinance of an auto loan that would save $1000 by dropping my interest 1%. Creditor performed a hard inquiry, then contacted my current creditor and came back with the bad news that the interest rate would actually be higher and the only possible benefit would be lower monthly payments. Is this hard inquiry possible to have removed? In the past I have only had soft inquiries performed prior to receiving the details of the loan.

I'd suggest posting on a US forum for advice, this is a UK site
Sam Vimes' Boots Theory of Socioeconomic Unfairness:
People are rich because they spend less money. A poor man buys $10 boots that last a season or two before he's walking in wet shoes and has to buy another pair. A rich man buys $50 boots that are made better and give him 10 years of dry feet. The poor man has spent $100 over those 10 years and still has wet feet.
