Will the ID check leave a print on my credit file?
The TrustID check will not leave a hard check against your credit profile.
We utilise TrustID for our ID checking requirements, under Government requirements.
This verifies your Identity documents, and also runs an AML (Anti-Money Laundering) and address check in the background. This will pick up things like any PEP notes or sanctions.
TrustID will be visible on your credit profile as a soft credit check, which will not effect your credit score.
A hard credit search involves a review or your credit record, which may affect your credit score and eligibility. A soft credit check just provides a view of your profile, mostly through links to your address, which in turn allows us to verify you are who you say you are!
Anything uploaded to TrustID is deleted within 7 days.
