I have had many credit cards & bank loans over the last 25 years whilst self employed. I recently got a credit check on line but the details only go back 6 years. How do i find previous details of who I had the cards/accounts with?

    Do you have any pld bank statements or accounts that might show payments to card companies or loan providers? Other than that I think you are stuffed, Banks won't hold records from 25 years ago.

    Why do you need to go that far back?
    :p

    Well don't need to go that far maybe but think I may have been sold PPI when I shouldn't have been, because I have been self employed since 1988. I have had many car loans from banks or credit card companies. Changed many times over the years, no idea who was what year etc

    If its for potential PPI claims - what you never had you won't miss.
