No credit check

Submitting your initial finance enquiry with us as part of our eligibility pre-assessment does not, by itself, trigger a credit check by us or create an entry on your credit file. If you choose to proceed with a referred broker or lender after this initial step, they may conduct a credit check in line with their own assessment processes, and multiple credit enquiries can make it more difficult to obtain a loan and may limit your options.
