Just out of interest how does a failed credit application appear on a credit file to potential creditors..?

Also do they appear on a file immediately?

    It doesnt show up.

    It will only show as a credit search, just like any other application.

    No no one would know whether it was a successful application or not. It could just as easily be that you decided not to take up the offer.
    Well life is harsh, hug me don't reject me.
