Can easily find out within 20 mins

You can find out within 20 mins if you're on CIFAS database??

Well you can find out if you have one against your name very quickly so yes

Well that's news to me!

How would one do that?

Any updates on this? Whole forum is waiting to find out how you can find out if you're on the CIFAS database in 20 mins?

Good to see you have realised that this issue, i.e the same issue everyone in the uk is experiencing, is nothing to do with linking

Anyone running a business would be making use of their free credit checks.

Get yourself a copy of your credit report, it will tell you on there if you are.

Snap!

Just posted the same thing.

Credit checks only show protective CIFAS registrations. If a financial institution has registered a first party fraud CIFAS warning against you, as would be the case if you'd tried to open an account in someone else's name, it would NOT appear on your credit check with equifax, experian or callcredit.

We aren't talking about first party fraud or anything like that.

You asked where you could find out in 20 minutes if you had a CIFAS marker. My reply was the CORRECT one. You never stipulated which type.

Hello, I'm afraid you are mistaken. The thread is about the use of other people's bank accounts and the opening of accounts in others names. These activities are first party fraud and will result in CIFAS flagging you as a fraudster and these will not show on credit checks, free or paid.

I'm afraid that your reply was incorrect as the information given is inaccurate. The method given will not inform an individual that they are on the CIFAS database, unless they registers themselves on it.

People, do not rely on this method to assure yourselves that you are not on the CIFAS database.

I wasn't aiming this at opening accounts in other people's names, anyone doing that needs their bumps felt.

I was merely saying that you can check for CIFAS on your credit report, full stop. Never at any time did I say for first party fraud that this is the BEST or most ACCURATE. I said it CAN be done.

As I said, disregard the information given as it is incorrect and inaccurate and will only tell you what you already know.

Always good to know the status of the credit score
