Experian

Under 141 links it will read.

current address (in format a), linked to address (in format a) by company x

and there will be 141 of these, just changes between what format the address is in.

Does that make sense?

Mate I know they tell you the opposite, sorry, I did have Lee Hancock do it for me. Maybe I should express that. Not the normal nuggats that proclaim to be experts in the field (i've forgotten more than half the nuggats at Experian have learned)! :rotfl::rotfl:

He works in IT and is high up isn't he?

Yes mate, he is high-up but I bet most of us lot earn more than him! He's in directors office (basically deals with all complaints - what an awful job cos it'd need an army to deal with experians complaints lol). he is that Nick Levers boss!

Right, so the links are 141 accounts and or searches - not 141 linked addresses? That explains it

So there are like 5/6 linked addresses but 141 entries in there? If so thats normal they will all drop off when the accounts are closed from the link and the account data is gone so 9yrs in total. The cap1 will drop off after 6yrs of none usage plus 3yrs reporting data so 9yrs. following me still......

Ok, I understand about the 9 years, but capital one data has been long time gone from credit report and some only relate to searches back in 2001/2002, never had an account with them, so are these links still suppose to be there? I thought that they would be gone after 12 months like a search? no? But one thing is for sure and I don't know if it is just a coincidence or just me but 95% of the time I applied for credit and they only searched experian I got declined, but never had any issues with Equifax...

Yes, you need to sort the links out with experian - email and ask for their take on it and query each individual entry.

They will then respond with an answer to each query.
