further to a previous post I don't appear to be on the electoral roll for where I live, which is appearing as a negative on my credit file-once rectified will the CRA's be updated automatically, at some point, or should I do this manually? does it actually make a difference to your rating

This will have a big impact if you are not registered... not just Credit File but anything you apply for....
Sign up here and get listed... https://www.gov.uk/register-to-vote
It will take a couple of months for CRAs to be updated, but its a must to do...0 -

so to confirm that's it from me, the CRAs will, in time, will be updated

Yes, CRAs will update Electrol roll - remember they only update what you see every 30 days, so it might get picked up whilst you waiting for a new report....
... but it could take a couple of months... both for someone to actually add you... and then for CRAs to pick it up.0
