Can someone’s personal details be searched using their name+NI number?

Hello all,
Is it possible to search credit score, CCJ and any (any at all) details of a person using his/her National Insurance Number or name + national insurance number?
Many Thanks

Depends who you are, and which database you are using.


If you mean can a debt collector search for you using those details, then no, your NI number will only show up on certain government databases.


They can use a variety of other methods though, internet searches, social media, phone book, voters role, credit report details, you name it !!

Thanks a lot for your reply. Actually I was a bit inaccurate in asking what I wanted to ask. What I wanted to ask is, which all types of information are publicly searchable about a person, (free of cost or by paying some cost) by using National Insurance number or Name+National insurance number, and, where?

I would hope that the answer is NO
