What is a credit search uk (or
a Company Search)
Credit search uk – a redundant term?
The term ‘credit search uk’ was traditionally
used to refer to request information on a Company from Companies House. A
credit search uk usually included the latest annual return, accounts, the
incorporation documents and other recent events (such as change of name or
directors).
Today ‘credit search uk’ no longer carries the same
meaning. With online suppliers able to supply quickly and cheaply any combination
of Companies House documents, to meet the customer’s individual requirements,
there is no need for the traditional credit search uk.
The free credit search uk
A quick search on the internet will reveal many
websites offering free credit search ukes. Not surprisingly these free searches
are not for the traditional package of Companies House documents. Instead they
allow you to enter a name and find basic details about matching companies.
Matches are usually displayed with the registered office address. You can do
this here by entering the business name in the box on the top left of this
page.
Most of these websites then allow you to go on and buy business
credit reports or Companies House documents on the companies displayed. However
these free searches are also useful if you want to check on the existence
of a company name before you form your own company or if you only require
the registered office address of a company.
What if you
need a credit search uk?
If you think you need a credit search uk, then you can now choose to buy only what
you need or instead reports which may be better suited to your needs than any
collection of Companies House documents.
For example if you want
information on the trading history of a business then business credit reports
provide a summary of a number of years of accounts, some financial and industry
analysis and also credit risk scores. These are usually the most useful source
of information if you are looking to establish a trading relationship with
a business.
If you want to check on
the directors of a company then a Company Directors report will give you
the names and addresses of the current directors. Individual director reports
provide the names of all businesses an individual is a director of.
Packages of statutory documents
similar to the traditional credit search uk, which are mainly required by solicitors
and accountants are also available.
