Credit card eligibility checker.

Dear Forum

I have tried numeral times to use the above checker and, after I typed in all requested details I get this message all the time: Unfortunately, we have not been able to find your details at the Credit Bureau. Please check and try again.

I have tried my husband's details as well and get the same message however, we both have credit reports!

Can someone please tell me why I get these messages every time and what I can do to rectify this?

Kind Regards

Maggie

    Hi. The new eligibility checker uses the address data directly from royal mail addresses database. I live in a flat, all my credit agreements report to the CRAs with the flat in front of the address, so if i didn't enter it, the checker could not find me. So if your case is the same, try to enter a number in front of the street name, if the address won't shoup up, just click on Enter address manually and add the flat number. This way you will be fine. Happy Holidays! :)
