Credit report - missing accounts

Hi,

I just checked my credit report for the first time in years with Experian and I was amazed to see what little information there is on there of previous accounts. There are only 3 accounts listed, all that I defaulted on in 2005 and had a payment plan with (I'd actually completely forgotten about these accounts).

But my current account and the credit card I have with my bank are not showing, despite the application for the credit card search by the bank showing. Up until recently I had a £1600 overdraft with the bank and even this is not showing?

Is this correct? I gave Experian my addresses for the past 6 years so this seems a bit odd to me. Everything else like electoral roll info seems to be correct.

I'm trying to clean up my credit file and I'm confused. :(
Sorted out my finances...

    Could possibly that those accounts show on your equifax and or your callcredit reports. To get a full picture its best to get copies of all 3 files.
