System, method, and computer program product for searching credit agencies using partial identification numbers

摘要

A system, method, and computer program product are used to obtain a credit report. The system comprises at least one input device, a credit agency system, and a credit requesting system. The input device receives a partial identification number (e.g., social security number (SSN)) and additional information from an individual. The credit agency system receives the partial SSN and at least a portion of the additional information from the input device and generates a comparison result. The credit requesting system is coupled to the credit agency system and the at least one input device. The credit requesting system controls transmission of the partial SSN and the portion of the additional information to the credit agency system and receives the comparison result from the credit agency system.
