    I don’t understand the questions? There are searches in your file you don’t recognise? Or the searches that should be there are missing?
  • hi
    the unrecorded entries are normally ID checks or insurance quotes, also leaves a search here when you look at your credit report. They should be from companies you have dealt with, if not then query them
