No they do not. They search Experian and sometimes Equifax depends on the data retrieved from Experian. This is proven.
Please post an image of all 3 CRA's (your reports - removing personal data) if you can see a search on all 3 by N Brown (JD Williams)
What do you mean a search on internal systems, what internal systems? All companies search internally to check for customer matching profiles..... but do you mean some other kind of system or what?2010 - year of the troll

Play.com credit card is issued by MBNA so it will be Experian.We’ve had to remove your signature. Please check the Forum Rules if you’re unsure why it’s been removed and, if still unsure, email forumteam@moneysavingexpert.com0 -
