You have few options to stop this practice. Businesses with whom you have a current account have a "permissable purpose" as defined by the Fair Credit Reporting Act to access your credit report. This is, in fact, standard operating procedure in the financial world. I suppose if you closed the account and revoked all their rights (by some means), you could, in theory, stop them.

How do you get internal financing for a small business?

There are several methods for a small business owner: 1. You must offer credit cards. There are no exceptions to this rule. 2. Savvy business owners also know that accepting checks is still a very important way of accepting payments. There are still billions of check written every year. To be truly competitive in today's economy, you have to accept as many forms of payment as possible. 3. Many small businesses have applied and been approved for their own store credit card very similar to Sears, JC Pennys, etc. Offering revolving credit has always brought repeat customers who can buy on their credit worthiness. 4. My favorite is offering in house customer financing. There are companies that will offer credit lines up to $5000 with no credit checks and their approval rate hovers around 71 percent. Small business owners who take advantage of financing also enjoy no recourse or risk. As with any financing platform, make sure you do your due diligence and get educated and then make a decision to accept these forms of payment as not doing so will most likely have a negative financial impact on your business.
