Credit Report!

Hi All
Relatively New To The Site But I Visit Every Day To Read Threads.

I Have Just Read My Credit Report A Free Service Thing Thru My Cap1 Cc And I Have Noticed I Have A Linked Address Which Is Exactly The Same As Mine But In A Different Village Not To Far From Me. It Has Some Details For Me At This Address ( I Have Never Lived There And Have Nothing To Do With) Which Are Correct Do You Think This Is Just An Error Made In The Past Where Someone Doing Search On Me Has Selected Wrong Adddress And Should I B Concerned About This?

Many Thanks

    Hi, please don't post all in capitals as the forum software automatically changes this to capitalise every word and it makes it very hard to read.

    The free credit report thing - does it have somewhere to contact them to check things ? I would expect it does, so try this.

    Sounds like an error. As it's a one-off slip, there will be no subsequent data attached, so it's unlikely to cause you any problems.

    For peace of mind though, I would give Equifax a call ;)
