You assume they still don't get paid when a credit report is run without asking for that burro. I don't see any evidence that this is how the fee structure works.

If not a lot of people are run through Equifax, their customers are going to ask themselves why they’re paying them.

That could at the very least give the customers leverage to negotiate the rates down, which would also hurt Equifax’s revenue stream.
