    OK, checking noodle I can now see Monzo and BOS!!
    Alarmingly I can also see TSB and Santander bank accounts I have no knowledge of having!?! They both say £0 and are in good standing. I must have opened them over a decade ago. Shall I leave them be?

    Im certain there is no more than £1 in both these accounts, so not necessary to dig into them. Just wondering shall I close them? Are they as beneficial say as a long standing credit card? or does a long standing bank account not help?

    Neither Equifax or Experian see them. only noodle
