Very difficult to log corrections and see messages all from “no-reply “ emails
If British Gas had not robbed me I would not have bothered with Equifax
Tried to log a complaint for incorrect information being held.
First they responded saying call us or give a number for us to call you on, which I refused as I wanted their response in writing.
Their written response then followed days later saying they could see nothing wrong (I had already supplied all the relevant evidence and information in the complaint), and that I should contact the relevant company concerned (already done that they told me to contact Equifax where they got the information from).
So I'm in a pointless cycle that is going nowhere with neither company willing to take ownership.
The issue that Equifax have on my file is not seen as an issue by either Experian or Trans-Union.
Equifax also refuse to accept this, despite me providing them with copies of my reports from both companies that clearly show that neither of them has any issues on my credit report.
My Equifax rating is much lower than my Experian and Trans-Union ratings.
I would say avoid at all costs but unfortunately you have no choice in the matter, you are literally at their mercy and there's very little you can do about it because they don't even take your complaints seriously.
A few days after my complaint with Equifax was marked by them as "resolved" they then took 70 points off my score which then pushed me down a level.

Poorly designed experience. They seem to think free coffee etc will make up for a fundamentally weak core value proposition.

A comprehensive look into your credit history well worth paying for a subscription even only for a short period to gain a good personal insight to your fiances. Only grumble would be it seems app is underdeveloped as if you wish to view credit file from app it redirects you to website and you have to go through log in process again. A minor gripe but begs the question why can't it be completely integrated especially as you are encouraged to download and view via app, therefore that's why I knocked the review point down from 5 to 4 stars

I had a positive experience with Equifax while resolving an issue on my credit report. My dispute was handled professionally, and once the necessary information was confirmed, the incorrect entry was removed promptly.
I appreciate the fair and efficient process, as well as the commitment to keeping credit reports accurate. Thank you for helping resolve my case.
Highly recommended.

The re assurance that my credit rating was of a high standard after being turned down for a new mobile phone contract.

I had a discrepancy on my credit report. I raised the issue with Equifax, and within 24 hours it was rectified and fixed. Thanks again.

Your site holds the wrong details and your call centre is pathetic they couldn't understand English or speak it well .
You still have the wrong details on file.

I provided a detailed complaint together with supporting documentation clearly demonstrating multiple inaccuracies on my credit file, including an incorrect current address, missing active credit accounts and other reporting discrepancies. Despite this, I received what appeared to be a generic template response that failed to address the specific issues I had raised.
My previous complaint on the same matter was also marked as resolved, yet the problems remained. I have now had to raise the issue again and provide the same evidence for a second time.
The customer service team has repeatedly failed to properly investigate or correct the inaccuracies on my credit file, despite being provided with clear supporting documentation. As someone preparing for a future mortgage application, I expect a credit reference agency to maintain accurate records and to investigate legitimate concerns thoroughly, rather than sending standard responses that do not address the complaint.
I sincerely hope my complaint is now reviewed by someone who will fully investigate the evidence provided and ensure my credit file accurately reflects my personal information.

It was quick and easy to set up my Equifax account. But the information they gave me about old motor finance deals was inaccurate. They identified one former deal at a time when I know I had none, and failed to identify the only real motor finance deal I’ve ever had. Their responses to my queries were very unhelpful and did not resolve the issue. I feel that after using their service I actually know slightly less than I did beforehand, instead of more.

Very poor customer service can’t speak proper English. Doesn’t listen to customer at all. If you send email they say call us when you call they say email us. Even I requested to speak their manager but they said he’s not here today.

Failed to update my address for a year, despite registering on the electoral roll and having a mortgage at my new address.
It took me to chase this and get it changed, meanwhile my credit score was significantly lower than TransUnion etc.
Why would anyone pay for their "premium" services when they can barely do the basics?

Reply from Equifax
Unreliable and ambiguous information. Data is not up to date and is incomplete given that certain suppliers won’t share it.
Is outrageous that some companies would use Equifax as a source of truth regarding credit information.
On top of that, the U/X is awful and the information shared on the site is mostly useless. Is very little that you can do besides asking for an specific change on some information.

Only company that hasn’t took into account the rebuilding of my credit score after my debt struggles. Experian and every other credit score provider has done this. Equifax is much more harsh.

Reply from Equifax
They are good, but they sometimes don't have records up to date especially when you need it most. Needed help with PCP but they didn't have the records.
