Following the static article kindly posted here on MSE regarding which banks use which CRA and the recent activity on the forums regarding this question, I have had an idea to develop a dynamic database with a simple web user interface where by people like us who would like to know who is searching who can submit a query to the database and find up to date information, also people could submit new data to keep it up to date, before I begin this task can I have some feed back from you guys on how useful this would be or not as the case may be.
Thank you in advance.

    Ok, I have reserved the domain name for this site: who-uses-who.no-ip.biz
    I will begin the back end database tonight and if I get enough feedback I will continue the dev work.
    Cheers

    Yes, I know what you mean, I went a bit loopy applying for things but with a strategy in mind, how long have you got left before your files are clean?

    Hiya PROLIANT
    Made a booby in posting in wrong thread! So have made it a new thread, I have 2 years for a clean file, there were wrong data on my CRF's that had to be sorted. That took a bit of doing!
    Can't believe how quick 4 years went by! I have been discharged 3 and a half years though!

    Not a searchable database, but there's an easily scrollable table on the stoozing website: http://www.stoozing.com/cards.htm

    Bring it up and press CTRL+F to find the name of the card you're looking for and it'll show you who uses Experian and Equifax - only 2 that matter IMO.
