There are three major credit repositories: Equifax Experian TransUnion If a consumer goes to each bureau and requests their raw data, there is no impact their credit score. If, however, a consumer goes to a third party vendor, even through the bureau's own website, that WOULD generate an inquiry which MAY lower your credit score.
