Why should I use a credit check service?

Doing business in the current environment is difficult enough without having to worry about getting paid. For non-retail businesses, where credit is expected by wholesale customers, there is nothing worse than providing goods and services only to end up with a bad debt.

A credit score or credit rating is simply an indication of the likelihood of the business facing financial difficulties.

Credit scores are rarely considered in isolation as they will change over a period of time as new information, such as the submission of company accounts, becomes available.Reviewing credit scores on a comparative basis also help in assessing a company's financial standing.
