Consumers can now act quicker to ID fraud alerts and manage their finances on the move with unique access to Equifax Credit Report Services

Equifax is to provide instant online access to consumer credit information, is leading the market in helping to protect consumers from ID fraud as well as empowering them to manage their finances. Equifax is the first credit information provider to launch a mobile app that provides full access for consumers to their credit data via a variety of smart phone devices, anywhere and at any time.

The Equifax app is available free from the Apple iTunes Store on iPhone and iPad and from Google Play for Androids.

Neil Munroe, External Affairs Director, Equifax stated:  “The launch of the Equifax mobile app is a clear illustration of our commitment to bringing consumers even better real time access to their credit information.  In particular, we believe it provides consumers a real head-start versus ID fraudsters because as soon as they receive an SMS alert from us that information on their credit report has changed, they can use the app to check the details. There’s no need to find a PC to log on. And if there is a search or credit agreement they didn’t authorise they can immediately contact the organisation that registered it with us to flag up the potential of ID fraud.” 

The Equifax app is available free from the Apple iTunes Store on iPhone and iPad and from Google Play for Androids.
