    my boyfriend applied for his credit report a few yrs ago just before his application for a morgage.. as he lived at home he found anyone who had applied for any kind of credit from the same address was on his report and his brother was a waste of time were money was concerned.. we got worried it might stop him getting a morgage but it didnt.. turned out that my boyfriends credit was fantastic so more so they offered him above his average wage for a morgage.. on asking why so many other peoples debts on his report they said it was the address that the report was on, but my boyfriends credit was not affected by others on the report..

    did the other people at the address show up under the "CIFAS" (fraud prevention) section?

    You could have got a free trial from Experian, or sent off for a copy by post - £2.50!!!

    hi, it was the free credit expert trial, which allows you to see the whole file, but not the actual credit score. the credit score is the bit which costs you!

    Those we love don't go away,They walk beside us every day,Unseen, unheard, but always near,
    Still loved, still missed and very dear

    Are thinking of you today.
