In addition to minor iteration differences I've found that if you are slow updating a bank of a new address etc then sometimes you see the records flip-flopping between the two as each bank gives its monthly updates.
Whilst I understand the principle of wanting to see the information from the bank why have you not signed up for free access to your records with the respective CRAs (or their partner third parties) and looked to see the data directly? At least you could start understanding (and correcting if necessary) why the high count.1 -
I have access to the free scoring record for the CRAs - Experian poor score same with Transunion UK and good with Equifax for what those scores are worth - little from what I have read.
From seeing the data sent to the bank - there is huge difference between the number of addresses shown on the free offerings compared to what is shown on the CRA submission to the lenders it seems.
I am very keen to see what was written on the banks report as the document provided to me had huge chunks of redaction. It was clearly stuff they did not want me to see. When challenged they said its data referring to other parties. This is not the odd blanked out line but paragraph after paragraph ! so it is not for example someones name etc. Hence my desire to see what they had received. So it is now time to ask Equifax etc - they told me to demand it from the bank in a response to a formal complaint -- so on it goes.
I am very keen to see what is actually on this report ! tonnes of redactions pages of it ! .... not obsessing over loan but want to see the data - what tosh do the CRAs actually share ?0 -
I also snipped this ... cheek these people have .. they can shove their money sadly I need the bank account I have with them and cannot bin them due to my score .....0
