  • How tiny errors on our credit file cost us our dream home

    http://www.dailymail.co.uk/money/mor...-mortgage.html

    A £24 mistake on a mobile bill and a bungled energy bill meant this family couldn't get a mortgage

    "
    Unbeknown to the Bells, their previously sparkling credit rating had plummeted from ‘good’ to ‘poor’ because Vodafone-owned Talkmobile had put two black marks on their credit file for missing two £12 payments last year.James, 45, says he was never told he owed any money. But Talkmobile refused to remove the notification on his file. As a result no bank will touch them.

    Alarmingly, the Bells’ story is one that’s being played out across the country.
    Three weeks ago, Money Mail reported how Strictly Come Dancing’s Anya Garnis almost lost her home purchase after a billing mistake by npower meant she was refused a mortgage."
