Important Notes & Tips
You may have to pay a nominal fee to access your full credit report and see detailed listings.

FAQs
Q: Can I see who listed me without paying?
A: Usually you need to pay a small fee for the full credit report to see “who listed me.” Some CRBs allow partial view or status queries cheaper or free.
Q: What is the “Listed By” section in my CRB report?
A: It shows the lenders or institutions that have reported you — e.g. banks, SACCOs, microfinance, etc.
Q: How long does it take for a dispute to be resolved?
A: Disputes often take several days to a few weeks, depending on how quickly the reporting institution responds.
Q: Are there multiple CRBs I should check?
A: Yes — because different lenders may report to different CRBs, checking more than one ensures you capture all listings.
Q: What if I see an old loan I’ve cleared listed?
A: Even paid loans remain in the CRB history; what matters is the status (whether non-performing or cleared). If listed as delinquent in error, you can dispute to correct that.
