Bank account not showing on credit file

Options
I have checked all three companies and it is showing on none of them ?


It is an Abbey National now Santander account, I have had it for at least 30 plus years ?


It is used but only for a few hundred pounds a month, it has visa debit card for it, and a savings account attached to it.


It does not have an over draft, but neither does my nationwide account and that shows on my credit file ?

    It will be down to the age of the account.

    Banks did not routinely used to obtain permission to report bank accounts to the credit reference agencies.
