What is your credit report?
It is a history of all past borrowing and repayments between you and your creditors. Creditors such as banks, credit card and mobile phone companies use this to calculate the amount of money and the risk of lending to you. This is referred to as your credit score. If you have missed repayments and have debts in arrears, they will be marked on your credit file which will lower your credit score making it hard to gain credit in the future.

Identity theft is a major problem within the UK allowing criminals to gain credit in someone elses name. Each time your identity is used to gain credit your credit report will be flagged and an alert will be sent to your mobile via SMS text and E-mail. This will help alert you to any fraudulent credit applications being made in your name.
This can be for many reasons but unless you get access to your credit report you cannot find out. The creditors are unable to tell you why you have failed. It is possible that a mistake has been made on your credit file making it impossible for you to get credit. Gaining access to your credit report allows you to identify any possible mistakes.
