A friend and myself were discussing this the other day, basically because my credit rating sucks as I rinsed overdrafts and credit cards whilst at Uni.
I'm moving house soon, and we don't see why I can't apply for a loan with a decent rate of interest (normally reserved for people with "good" credit history) to pay off my debts, simply by saying I've lived at that address for, say, the past 5 years, maybe even change some small details, such as date of birth, middle name etc to further remove that history from my records.
Does anyone here actually know exactly how your credit history is linked to you? We thought it might be National Insurance number, but that's not asked for when applying for credit cards / loans.
Cheers.
