This was one of the biggest shocks for me. Other places you can pay a deposit (approx one month bill) in advance and they’ll cut you off if you go over it. No credit check required.

Last time I moved between states, I asked and was able to pay a deposit to avoid the credit check. I randomly got it refunded several years later after I'd forgotten about it.

Of course that was over a decade ago. And if this data becomes another revenue stream, of course that won't be an option.
