Do I need to request all types of credit report to clear it up?

Can anyone tell me do I need to go through all the credit companies to clear them up or will one do the job? I'm looking at starting the clear up after AD on the 1st but I dont really know where to start!! Would ordering a report from experian be a good starting point?

    credit file cleanup sticky at the top of this forum will help a lot

    ideally you need your £2.00 statatory credit file from call credit/experian & equifax in the real world they should all talk to each other...sadly its not the case as sometimes what shows on one file may be missing totally off another

    Then the other 2, you can apply for both your statutory reports online from Experian & Equifax at a cost of £2 ;)
