    Hmm, interesting. My searches show on my Equifax report. They are obviously not so helpful!

    I closed my Lloyds TSB credit card account in January, but until last month, my CRA forms were saying that the account was still open with a balance of £5 - despite Lloyds sending me statements confirming I owed nothing. When I challenged this with Equifax, they wrote to them and didnt get a reply back within 3 weeks so said that they were totally removing the information from my credit report until they heard back from them.
