Credit Reference Agencies

Hi,

If a person changes his or her name the bank notifies the credit Reference Agencies. Do the credit reference agencies then notify the finance people as a matter of course or is the change of name just filed away until a credit report on this person is asked for?

There are a list of people YOU have to tell, I am sure that they would include anyone that you have financial links to:

[/SIZE][/FONT][FONT=arial,helvetica,sans-serif][SIZE=-1]A:[/SIZE][/FONT][FONT=arial,helvetica,sans-serif][SIZE=-1] Yes you do. Two of the declarations you make on your Deed Poll are that you will entirely abandon the use of your old name and you will only use your new name in future. A list of government departments, companies and organisations that you need to notify is included in your Deed Poll pack.[/SIZE][/FONT]
