Electoral roll

Credit agency's are showing that I am not on the electoral roll, but I completed my annual registration form, and received my voting cards last month - what's going on here?

    how long have you been living at your current place ?

    as it can take a while for the electoral roll to be updated, then more time after that for your files to be updated

    If you completed last years autumn's annual registraton then it should be updated on your credit files by now.

    Is there a slight mismatch in the address or the address format between how the local council write your address and how you've entered it when you applied for your credit files?

    As per this type for query ---> http://www.experian.co.uk/consumer/questions/askjames290.html

    Contact the CRA to query why you don't appear if they should have the info by now. As said, it could be some sort of mismatch or error one end or the other.
