Non-UK national trying to check credit rating

cjd08 · 2020-11-11 19:23:16

My wife (a non-UK national) tried to register with the Credit Club, however she could not get through the identification checks, presumably because she has not lived here long enough. She moved here in 2018. Prior to this she studied here in 2014, and again in 2016. Is there any way that she can check her credit rating?

A manual review just slows things down and there are very few instances where it will improve things, rather than making things worse. About the only exception is if you were in a coma for a few years and defaulted on an account as a result.

In general, never follow any advice given by the CRAs.
