    Cleaning up your credit record never hurts

    Problems with your credit record will be a problem if you hope to become a director of a company. But a bad credit record shouldn't be a problem if you just want to own or trade shares in a public company - unless you need to get a loan to finance the purchase.

    I guess it depends what you plan to invest in.

    It took a few days for Experian to process the docs, but now I have full access to my free annual credit report. It is a bit like a trip down memory lane with a list of all the addresses and phone numbers that I had at the time of various credit applications.

    There is a lot of account history in the report. Overall, a little interesting, but my credit history is fairly bland (thank goodness).

    I can't - but if you go to Transunion here, click on My Credit - near the bottom of that page is the starting point for getting your free credit report.

    I give up

    If reading the post immediately above yours is too much trouble...

    For the first time ever on TFSA - thread closed!
