Remove old addresses

Posted on: 18th Apr, 2012 08:15 pm
I read on another forum that you should always write and ask CRAs to delete old addresses. Is there any point in writing to have the old ones removed? Will they really remove it? I've read that if you have them removed and dispute something that had an old address, there's a better chance of it being deleted because the addresses won't match, so that sounds good. Should I bother?
Hi Bougan,

If you have a new address, then you can request the CRA to update that in your credit file. Any contact from the creditor or CA's side can then be made to your new address.

Hi Bougan!

Welcome to forums!

There is no harm in trying. You can contact the credit bureaus and try to update your present address on your credit file.

Feel free to ask if you've further queries.

I agree- it can't hurt. There's really no reason to have any of the old addresses on there anyway.
