    I have rung my local council today and they have confirmed I am on the register for my current property which I know, and said there isn’t much they do can if it’s currently on 2/3 CRA’s so should I ring Experian and ask them why they aren’t putting the correct information on?

    Ringing Experian is a waste of time doesn’t even have an option to question why something is wrong on your report so where do I go from here? Email?

    Experian can't do anything.
    It's the Council that need to chase it with them, not you.

    Ask them to confirm what they are reporting to Experian and to check it again then!

    I’ve just signed Upto checkmyfile and they report Experian as having me on the Electoral roll at my current address shows when they put me on and took off my old address, so do I just forget about it and hope for the best?

    So surely they must have the correct info on my electoral roll. And yes I will cancel it before the 30 days is up.
