CRA Updates

A quick question hoping for an answer.

Experian and CallCredit will update on screen as you log on or ask for a new report respectively. Equifax however, asks you to request a new report but this can only be done once a day.

Is there a time in the day when it updates so it would be best to request a new report? Anyone know when it actually updates if indeed there is a specific time.

Thanks.

    Could be any time. Many credit companies only update the CRA once a month. What's the rush?
    :footie:
    :p Regular savers earn 6% interest (HSBC, First Direct, M&S) :p Loans cost 2.9% per year (Nationwide) = FREE money. :p

    There is no rush, I know the actual updates can be monthly, I'm just wondering if there is a time in the day Equifax update it not the individual companies that's all.
