Credit search agencies can’t find me....

I’ve been overseas for many years and of the electrical roll for those years. I re-registered on the electrical roll just over a year ago so I should have some history. I’m however registered at my parents house and I live in a HMO (share house of many occupants).

Before I call Experian etc what address should I use and is there any other information I need to know?

You should re-register yourself on the Electoral Register at your current home address (the HMO). The HMO address should also be the address you use for any bank accounts, credit cards or other financial products. You need to be consistent.

Whilst agreeing with the above in principal, if you want to be found by Experian you will need to use the address where you are currently registered on the ER and where your credit accounts/bank accounts (if any) are registered.
There is nothing wrong, as such, in using your parents address provided that you can be contacted there and are consistent in using this address for all purposes.

So it’s best if I just changed everything to my parents?

Must be quite shocking to find yourself off the electrical roll...

You might find the electoral roll to be more useful.
