a while back i got a small personal loan, they ran my credit the day i got it, then the next day it shows my credit was ran again from them. my credit report is counting this as 2 hard hits, is there a way i can dispute one of them? same thing happened last year when i was trying to get a car, the dealorship ran my credit, then for some reason a week later they ran my credit again. those both are being counted as hard hits, giving me 2 extra hard hits i dont need.

funny, i didnt know inquiries were hard hits, or that 2 inquiries would affect your score that much

there is hard ones which are things like loans and credit cards, then are soft ones like when you check your own credit i think, something like that. it doesnt really effect your score to much, but it does effect the fact that i got denied refinancing my 18% 13k auto loan! thats why im trying to see if i can dispute one from both companies that for some reason thought they needed to do 2.

it doesnt matter. as long as you are not running your credit like 10 times in a month. it wont affect your score much at all.
