You asked us

"When using databases as part of your enquiries do you always use the Credit Reference Agencies and what databases do you search?"

We do not always use the CRA's. We can only access the CRA information when we, or our client, has signed agreement to that and that agreement includes the right for our client to pass on to a third party ie us. Most agreements of course are given when signing a credit agreement.

We use many databases, some proprietory, some public, along with many different websites, to access information. It is far from a comprehensive list but just some of the public record databases we may use would be:
Court Registry Trust
Telephone records
Land Registry
Companies House
Electoral Roll (edited version)

We may also need to contact any number of professional bodies that provide information such as The Law Society, British Medical Association and other registries etc.
