mortgage providers and cra's

does anyone know how to find out which mortgage providers use which credit reference agencies?

Will need to apply for a mortgage in a few months time. i know my experian report is ok but my equifax report has a couple of historical problems, hence I may find it easier to get a mortgage with someone who only checks experian.

Any ideas?

    Nope, the lenders, i.e. Underwriters can use any of the 3 credit files or all.

    If your file has historical problems then write to them and ask to get it fixed.
