I need to start up my fight with callcredit again. I can see that they have added the incorrect links again including default!
I may cancel my Experian & Equifax reports as I am attempting to make no new applications in the next year although I only have 4 searches on Equifax :-)
Also concidering switching my salary back to HSBC

Do you think that I have no pre-approved offers on my Barclays account because of the CallCredit errors?Innocent_Guy wrote: »I need to start up my fight with callcredit again.

It shouldn't matter too much cos they only soft search CC - they always use Experian/Equifax for their full search don't they.... why, you want to apply for a loan?
Why not apply for a sygma card of your equifax is clear mate...? :beer: 2010 - year of the troll

Well I was wondering if they are getting a monthly data feed from the CRA's including callcredit and are using some of this data to make there pre-approved descions?never-in-doubt wrote: »It shouldn't matter too much cos they only soft search CC - they always use Experian/Equifax for their full search don't they.... why, you want to apply for a loan?

Quite possibly as they do subscribe to CC's feeds now - but they would never decline you based on a report from CC - they use the big 2 (as at todays date of course)....
This means, to you, that although you won;t see any pre-approved offers as such, you may get an instant accept if your credit file is clear. So assuming your equifax file is clean then log-in and apply for a barclaycard and you may well get accepted based on equifax report and your internal behaviour. 2010 - year of the troll
