    Check at your local library. If you are listed, there are no errors - and you can reflect that the CRA's are pretty hopeless in their attempts to process your data.

    Can I add things to my CRA? Somthing that shows on one CRA doesn't show on another?

    I went to the council this week and they gave me a letter which stated when I got onto the electoral roll. I am going to send that to Equifax if required. I was quite pleasantly surprised that Experian amended my electoral roll issue within a few days of me notifying them. I didn't need to send them to the letter from the council either. However, I am subscribed to their CreditExpert service so maybe that makes a difference in terms of speed.
    By the way, I did have to pay 15 pounds for the letter from the council plus the time to go in when they are open, etc so the costs and time do start to add up.
