Tesco Mobile Contract Not On Credit File

Options
My dad has a Tesco Mobile Contract, which he's had and paid by direct debit for over 2 years. It is a SIM Only Contract and is only £7.50 per month. A recent check on his credit file with Experian and it is not showing up.

I would have thought mobile contracts would show, no question asked.

Whom would I need to write to at Tesco to query this further?

    Do Tesco definitely report to Experian, and not Call Credit or Equifax?

    yup myns on equifax
    Don't put your trust into an Experian score - it is not a number any bank will ever use & it is generally a waste of money to purchase it. They are also selling you insurance you dont need.
