YOUR RECORDS. YOUR STARTING POINT.

Access

Have you reviewed your own report recently, and was it from one or more bureaus?

Accounts, enquiries and personal details.

Behaviour

Payments and recent credit applications.

Find a useful starting point

Use your latest reports and account records to answer the questions. The check points to existing guidance about what to review next.

Find your next step

Your answers stay in this page; they are not saved or sent. This tool offers information, not a legal opinion or an approval prediction.

Choose what needs attention

Work from the first matching row. These are guidance routes, not a credit-health rating.

An account or enquiry you do not recognise

Verify the entry promptly with the relevant bureau or credit provider through official channels. An unfamiliar entry alone does not establish fraud.

A detail you think is incorrect

Compare current bureau information with your records and gather supporting evidence before disputing a factual error.

Payments are not current, or you are unsure

If there is no unfamiliar entry or suspected report error, confirm balances and overdue amounts with your providers. Check your payment position before further applications.

Several recent applications, with payments current

If you recognise the information and have no suspected report error, review recorded enquiries and affordability before making further applications.

The earlier rows do not apply

Review your latest credit information, compare it with your records and monitor for changes. You can use the guidance whether you have not checked recently, checked one bureau or reviewed several.

Your next step

Use the report, interpretation, dispute or credit-readiness guidance that matches your answers. Read it with your latest reports and supporting records beside you.
