So, I'm 30 years old and finally decided to take the plunge and buy a brand new car. I'm at the dealer, I signed all the paperwork and a few minutes later, the salesman tells me that my credit score is 0.
Now I know for a fact that my credit score is ~710, but at that point I felt like someone whose card was declined and was pretending to be shocked even though they now the card is maxed out.
I tell the guy that there must be some sort of mistake and a few minutes later he comes back with a report from Equifax saying that they do cannot locate my information and that what I provided was a potential scam.
A few years ago, I had a legal name change but I made sure that my bank and all companies with which I have a line of credit updated their records, so I'm not sure if that's the problem.
What do I do?
