How Does Credit Reporting Work?
When you apply for credit from a financial institution the organisation providing the credit wants to be confident you will pay back what you owe. Credit reporting agencies (such as Equifax) keep track of whether you pay your bills and repay your debts, compiling this information into a credit report.
