My address differs on all 3 CRAs... how does this affect me?

Hi all,

I have checked my experian and checkmyfile accounts and the address differs slightly for example:

Experian - Flat 4, 8 Street Name

Equifax - 4 Flat 8 Street Name

CallCredit 4 8 Street Name

The experian one is correct but as I dont hold the acounts directly with Equifax and CallCredit I am unsure how to get this rectified?

If applying for credit is this likely to affect me with the addresses being seen slightly different by lenders or will they just look at the electoral register and see me there?

Also Experian have me at my address in 2013 on electoral register and CallCredit in 2014, can ths affect me too?

Thanks for reading.

Contact Equifax and Call Credit and ask them to amend it. Check that they all match your electoral roll details.

Thanks for your reply.

Do you think I could do this via checkmyfile?

If not then how would I contact them if I am not subscribed to their services?

Thanks again

You don't need to subscribe to get them to correct erroneous info.

I haven't done it myself, but I would image there are contact details on their site.
