Credit Searches

wizzywig27

Can someone (try) and explain my Equifax Credit search history to me please?


Ny overview says I have five searches recorded, but I can only see three, maybe four (detailed below)


Search 1 shows as a credit search and search type is opt in
Search 2 shows as a credit search and search type is opt in
Search 3 shows as a credit search and search type is opt in
Search 4 shows as a credit search, it is from Hastings Insurance and is opt out


I cannot see five searches


My previous address has the first three searches above plus a search from November 2011, but no Hastings search.


I think I have read that opt out means it wont show, but then the Equifax website states 'Table 1 is a summary of searches which are visible to other companies who search your credit report (you might hear them described as hard searches) and Table 2 is all other searches, which do not show to other companies (you’ll hear these described as soft searches).'

I basically have this exact same question... no one have any ideas?

It would help if you were to state if these searches appear in Table 1 or Table 2.
I can't imagine what a search from 2011 is still doing showing on your report.
