The report contains both personal and publicsector information that creditors use to determine whether or not to grant you credit. It is the accurate image that a creditor has when you are applying for a credit and play a pivotal part in credit checking. If you make a credit request, the creditor receives a copy of your credit record to verify your credit histories.

The £2 report is a snapshot of your credit standing at the moment of writing. Contains information about your credit histories, both publicly and privately, for up to six years.
Be sure to review this information regularly just to make sure there are no bugs or if something is wrong. To make a change, you can directly go to one of the offices where you obtained the legal credit report. Which information is not contained in your report?

Fees cover the administrative cost of handling the enquiry and allow you to verify the status of your credit files.
