ECJ’s Impending Judgment Puts Schufa Credit Agency Under Pressure: Unusual Letter Signals Nervousness

An impending judgment by the ECJ puts the credit agency under pressure. The court examines whether the assessments by Schufa violate the General Data Protection Regulation. Now she has sent an unusual letter.

A few days ago, Schufa sent a letter that caused a lot of confusion among the recipients – and shows how nervous Schufa is. The letter, the NDR and Suddeutscher Zeitung is available and went to various customers of the credit agency. Two pages are a template that the Schufa would like to have signed back. The companies should please confirm to the Schufa that the Schufa and its famous score are not as important as everyone thinks.
