Catalogue accounts...

How do I close them?

Ive been on equifax and have some accounts with catalogues that I no longer use and their is zero balance on them. They are showing as inactive. How do I close the accounts?

  • If they are showing nothing negative other than zero balance why remove them?
  • I want them removed as I have 7 credit accounts and the recommendation according to equifax is 3. They are showing as inactive zero balance.

    Just write to the companies and tell them you have no further requrements and ask them to close the accounts.
    make the most of it, we are only here for the weekend.
    and we will never, ever return.
  • Thanks McKneff
