How much of a pain in the bum is it.....

to get companies to take incorrect info off your credit file?

Just got my report for free through topcashback and HSBC are saying that for the past 2 months I haven't paid my loan (I think) the last 2 months have circles with 1's in them rather than 0's and I have always paid this - it has never been late ever in the entire 4 years and 9 months I have been paying it!

This is the last thing I need - my credit is already bloody shot!

    It's when number 3's appear you should worry. A zero or a 1 is fine :)
