I wasn't sure where to post this but i applied for a remortgage about 6 weeks ago & it came up on my search that i had a bank loan with payments showing up to date, i was shocked to say the least as i dont have a loan, i went onto experian website last week & there it was a loan with the Abbey for £3200. I know nothing about this loan so sent an email to experian, Got a reply back today from experian sayin letter had gone off to the Abbey with this statemant THE ACCURACY OF THIS DATA HAS BEEN DISPUTED BY THE INDIVIDUAL
CONCERNED AND WE HAVE NOW CONTACTED THE SUBSCRIBER. CARE SHOULD THEREFORE BE
TAKEN WHEN USING THIS ITEM OF DATA TO ASSESS THE CREDITWORTHINESS OF THE
INDIVIDUAL CONCERNED."


What should i do about This? do i sit & wait? any advise would be greatley appreciated.

Found out what this loan was on my credit file thogh i had to go into abbey branch, a loan that i had paid off 2 years ago had not been cleared the money was put into a clearence account & installments were still being paid. they have now told me that it will be cleared should i claim for compo as it has effected my credit rating as it still showed that i had more credit than what i actually had.for over 2 years.

I popped into the court & they don't seem to have recieved a copy of the defence that abbey sent to me & advised to wait a couple of days before taking my copy of the defence to show them.I thought they were supposed to send the defence into court & not direct to me???

When you read the template from the library for completing your AQ did you miss out the bits youre asking about?

Its all there I am completing mine too and i think all the answers you need are there.
