I know this has probably been covered before but what is the best way to inform the credit reference agencies of the receipt of my CC, also which ones do i need to inform to start getting my files cleaned up.

Sorry if this question has been asked before

Thanks for any info.

Some IP's inform the CRA's themselves, or the CRA gleans this once you are marked completed on the IR.

However, it does no harm to send each agency a copy. Useful tips here:

Hi ontheroad, I purchased the free monthly trials with all 3 CRAs once I received my completion certificate.

Within 2 weeks, Experian and Call credit had removed the insolvency. I raised a support call with Equifax and told them that the insolvency was concluded and this could be verified by checking the Insolvency Register. I got an email back within 72 hours saying it had now been removed, which it was.

So pretty painless really.
