    It's down to the data furnisher to supply the correct data to the CRA's.

    CRA’s only report what lenders tell them. 
    If data is wrong - go to the lender not the CRA.

    Thank you for this, given the assumption that this will take a very long time is there any mileage in adding a notice of correction and can you let me know what if any impacts these have on credit applications.

    thanks

    Why would you add a Notice of Correction?
    For what purpose?
    And yes it means every application you make needs a manual intervention.

    Experian say "...if any lenders are considering your application with a view to lending you money, they have a legal obligation to read the Notice of Correction. However, they are not obliged to take this into account when deciding whether or not to allow you to borrow."  So manual intervention is required.

    The score is made up anyway, I've known people who had got a few defaults in one month and the score went up.

    It's how they get people to pay for these credit report subscriptions.
