Abstract: Methods, apparatuses and systems facilitating analysis of expected interest rates and, in some embodiments, other conditions and circumstances associated with a variety of different loan types. In one embodiment, the present invention allows for a network-based application allowing users the ability to assess for what loan interest rates they are eligible based on current interest rate data and credit analysis scores that are used to determine qualifications for one of a variety of interest rates. In one embodiment, the present invention enables a web-based loan rate analysis system that combines credit score analysis with analyses of collateral and debt/income to offer users the ability to learn for what loan interest rates they are eligible when purchasing or refinancing a home.

Abstract: Methods, apparatuses and systems providing a voice-based interface to credit report retrieval systems allowing users to order credit report data using a telephone or similar device. The present invention provides novel functionality and process flows directed to handling a request from a caller for a credit report, while providing a secure and easy-to-use voice interface. In one embodiment, the functionality associated with the present invention allows a customer to access his/her credit score via a telephone or other suitable voice-based device, and have a credit report mailed to his/her address. The use of a voice interface, instead of a traditional graphical user interface associated with web-based services accessible over a client computer, marks a departure from traditional credit reporting product channels and provides an opportunity to access a large market of consumers who do not regularly access the Internet.
