Businesses using our services may include anyone wishing to check out people before making decisions to lend money, to extend credit or to make checks for fraud prevention purposes. The information made available through Credit Reporting Agency for these specific purposes is already in the public domain, such as Electoral Roll information and the presence of county court judgments or bankruptcies
Individuals are able to access their credit file information online. Credit Reporting Agency provides consumers with detailed information on how credit commitments have been handled, such as current credit card balances, payment history and credit limits. These private files are shared by over 200 of the largest lenders in the UK and are vitally important for people who regularly apply for mortgages or credit. We provide a service to individuals to monitor changes to their credit files and to keep them fully up-to-date with personal information issues. We also provide advice on how to maintain a good credit file and how to fix errors.
Chargebacks are a growing problem for all traders who engage in distance selling and to help prevent losses from Chargebacks, the National Chargeback Register advises whether a credit card or debit card has been charged back with another trader in the past and also warns of suspected fraudulent card transactions, warning others and helping the internet community to prevent chargebacks.
Credit reports are compiled by Credit Reporting Agency from many sources including Companies House, Dun and Bradstreet, checkSURE.biz, the Electoral Roll, PAF (Postcode Address File), the Register of County Court Judgments, the Insolvency Service, and from other credit reference agencies, to provide comprehensive credit information on consumers, companies or sole traders.
