- winrid 1y agoFrance
- skeezyboy 1y agointeresting. you dont get a credit rating but you have an effective credit check. nobody is giving money out to strangers hoping itll get paid back, theyre all checking your credit history - a mortgage is credit, mortgage defaults still count against your borrowing ability. Its a credit check in all but name
- winrid 1y agoNo. Landlords for example cannot request that information.
- INTPenis 1y agoActually same in Sweden. I never thought about it until now. It's mostly for luxury items and services that they request credit checks. Of course a landlord can still request you send in proof of employment and your salary specification.
