hi there,
I love this site and i think all you lovely poeple do a great job!
Two years ago i was helped by this site (different thread obviously) to reclaim PPI succcesfully from Barclays. i had 5 cases and all of them i won. So here i am again for some help if that is ok.
Thank you in advance.
Bankruptcy is an awful thing to go through as i unfortunately went through it myself. I was discharged last November. At the moment i am trying to open another bank account but was informed that it is going to be rather difficult.
I do not know what bank or building society to try,they are not very helpful, the banks i mean. I HAVE DONE NOTHING about my credit checks is that a problem? what is my next step?
thank you,

Hi WELSA, It is woth doing a credit file clean up, some threads below to help too x
You'll need to get all three credit files, click on blue links below:-
Experian - Click here
Equifax - Click here
Callcredit - Click here
They are £2 each for paper copies. Some people have used the online one's and have said the information was very poor compared to the paper copies.
