I don't know how well this will cut and paste into this forum but here is the letter I use. It came from a mish mash of the Mr LL credit check site and my current credit check site and my application criteria. Obviously you'd have to put the correct info into your letter from whichever service you used to check their credit.
As far as some who never deny based on credit? Why. It is a valid reason. All I do is print and mail a letter when their credit is below par. It's not hard or scary. It's just a part of the business.
Where it says Application criteria I'd send a similar letter without the credit info for any of the other 6 disqualify categories.
