in Credit cards
I'm a newbie, so hello to everyone!!!
My question is..
Is there a simple way of finding out what credit cards you have that are still active?
The reason I asked is because I recently opened a new online bank account, and had to contact them because the website said I had already registered for online banking with them, which didn't make sense to me at the time. Anyway, I reset my security and when I finally logged on, there was a credit card account showing (luckily with a £0.00 balance), which turned out to be an old card I had thought I'd cancelled ages ago.
This got me thinking, what other credit cards do I have out there where the accounts are still open?
Would appreciate your help!!!

Welcome to MSE.
There are two or three companies that allow you to go online and access your credit file for a small fee.make sure you cancell this Direct debit arrangement before the end of the 30 day free period or you will be paying a whole years subcription(okay if you want year around access).

there are also other links from martin's articles so have a look there for the other companies which you may want to check if the first report is not to your liking.
Good luck.
