BANKS ON CREDIT FILE?

Do all banks appear on people's credit files? Seems that some are not for some reason?

    There are 3 credit reference agencies and not all banks report to all CRAs. Is that a problem?

    Some of my current accounts and credit cards do not show on any of the CRA's. None of the savings account do as they shouldn't.

    There are exceptions, such as old accounts that predate the routine reporting to CRAs, but perhaps it would be more useful if you clarified which bank accounts and which credit agencies you're referring to?
