What are some of the risks associated with responding by phone to vendor
credit reference requests - and would you respond to a faxed inquiry?
Answer: : Because the
response is not in writing, and because you do not have a copy of what
you actually reported, there may be 'misunderstandings.' Another risk
is that people are more likely offer opinions or recommendations verbally
than they would be if their response were in writing. I would respond
to an inquiry received by fax, but the response would be made at my convenience,
not at or for the convenience of the creditor sending the inquiry. |
