Electoral roll

Im registered to vote and voted in the last election. However none of the credit reference agencies have information about me being on the electoral roll.

Is there any where i can get proof of this without having to inform the CRA as ive informed them on numerous occasions and nothing seems to get done?

    You could ask your council to see if they are willing to provide a letter to the effect you are on the electoral roll, and if so then could send that on to the credit reference agencies.

    By what method have you informed the credit reference agencies that their details are correct? Have they responded to you at all? Have you followed it up with a formal complaint?

    As an aside, sometimes e/r data not showing can be as a result of a slight address format mismatch.
    If you haven't already it might be worth checking the address format the council use is exactly the same as the address format that your credit account providers and the credit reference agencies are using.
