Check your own credit record
You can check your credit information for free, but if you want the information in a hurry you have to pay for a report.
Your credit information can affect how companies treat you, for example when you want to borrow money or get insurance.

What’s in your record?

When your credit record is wrong
If your record is wrong, you might not be able to get credit.
When you get your record check it for incorrect information, such as:
- credit accounts that you never applied for
- payment defaults you did not know about, or
- credit enquiries you never approved.
You can ask credit reporting companies to correct your information — each company has their own procedure for doing this.
