QuickQuid Double Trouble Help Needed!

[moonstar1981]

Hi all,

 

I'm a newbie sorting out my credit file and it's in a bit of a mess.

 

I've recently found 2 very similar notches on my credit file through QuickQuid. I've never used them!

 

The first one states Acc opened August 2008, closed 3rd June 2010, last reported Oct 2010 - Amount 469 Pounds (The status is Debt Assignment). Also the name is spelt incorrectly of my surname with an extra letter on the end.

 

Then second one states Acc opened July 2008, closed 3rd June 2010, last reported Oct 2010 - Amount 431 Pounds (The status is Debt Assignment). Also the name is spelt incorrectly of my surname with an extra letter on the end.v

 

Can anyone advise on how best tackle these?

 

Thanks

Chris

Write to the CRA's pointing out that you have never had an account with the company and that this appears to be fraud, you can copy in the company itself but I doubt that they would bother, they are not very straightforward, you do need to give them the chance to sort it out though.

 

If yo don't get a reply from the company complain to
