Changed Name Credit Check

I've recently changed my name and whilst the credit scores I use (Noddle and Clearscore) noted the change of address but haven't seemed to notice my change of name - though all my banks have it. I changed it in October and told the banks all before mid October, and got new reports at the turn of the month.
So should I re sign up for these sites with a different email address, or should they note the change of name and I need to wait a bit longer?

Not all the CRA's update that quickly.
Give it a couple of months, and if it's still not updated, then chase it up.I’m a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on the Debt free wannabe, Credit file and ratings, and Bankruptcy and living with it boards.
