Financial Assocs - Late Husband

[chrissa1]

Should the fact that My late husband is listed as a Financial Associate of mine on my Credit Report, have a detrimental affect on it?

Our business obviously had to be wound up when he died, which forced me into bankruptcy.

Should his death have been registered with Experian/Equifax etc?

[woofgang]

Do those organisations still list him as your financial associate?

[chrissa1]

Equifax, does. So I'm guessing Experian does, too.

[woofgang]

Then you need to tell them.

[woofgang]

sorry, I hit send too soon. The details of people who have passed away can be used for scams id they are still linked with a surviving spouse or partner so its worth doing to safeguard yourself.

Oh, I never thought of that, woofgang. I'll get on to them tomorrow. Thanks.
