You need to keep your own records or request a SAR to the companies you believe you've previously had credit with.
Credit Reports only hold 6 years of data0 -
Thank for the info but what is a SAR.0

It is a Subject Access Request. It is the official way to request full access to the data held on you by any applicable company.
A detailed explanation and guidance is in the link below. It includes an SAR letter template too.
