My identity was stolen. How do I put a ban on my credit report?
You can apply for a ban from any of the three different credit reporting bodies. When requesting a ban with one credit reporting body, you can also ask the credit reporting body to arrange a ban with the other two credit reporting bodies.
To arrange a ban, go to any one of the following:
- Equifax: Placing a ban with Equifax
- illion: Placing a ban with illion
- Experian: Placing a ban with Experian
The ban will initially apply for 21 days.
