Banks that use equifax

Hi,

Is it possible to find a bank that uses Equifax and not experian or do they all use both?

Thanks

    Hi Pammy,

    I asked the customer service lady @ RBS who was doing my mortgage application and she said they mainly use Equafax.

    Hope this helps

    Hi Pammy.

    Most Lenders have access to more than one credit reference agency.

    Is there a reason you need to know? Are you worried about something? Any lnformation about you should be registered with all agencys.

    Have they declined your application & told you to get a copy of your file? If this is the case, go back to them & ask them who they use, to be 100% sure.

    Hope this has helped.

    It is strange, my credit score with Equafax is Excellent whilst Poor with Experian........................
  • I have exactly the same problem my credit rating with Equifax is excellent yet my credit rating with Experian is poor.
