Will you check my credit history?

How the credit check works, what we'll ask about your credit history, and why answering truthfully matters.

Written by Joe Wigoder

Yes. A credit check is part of every Rentmigo application.

What we'll ask you

During your application, we'll ask you a few questions about your financial history, including whether you have any County Court Judgments (CCJs) or other debts.

Please answer truthfully

It's really important that you answer these questions accurately and completely. Your answers are checked against your credit report, so telling us everything up front means we can assess your application fairly and without delays.

I have a low credit score or a CCJ. Can I still apply?

Yes, you can still apply. Every application is assessed individually, looking at your whole financial picture rather than your credit score alone. Just make sure you tell us about it when we ask.

No UK credit history?

That's fine and very common for people who are new to the UK. You can still apply.
