Credit information is of vital importance to consumers, enabling them to obtain competitive finance in seconds. However, until now, the consumer has found it difficult to obtain this information, or does not even know it exists. Experian South Africa, a major credit bureau and business solutions company, now offers Siya Zwana Credit Report Services that helps consumers keep in touch with their credit profile by pro-actively alerting them of changes to their credit profile.
For a minimal monthly fee, Siya Zwana provides consumers with their credit reports, and every time it changes the consumer is notified. It allows consumers to access their latest credit report at any time of day, either through the Siya Zwana helpdesk or through the Internet. Siya Zwana Credit Report Services notifies the consumer when a credit lender requests a credit report in their name, a new account is opened, if a judgement is taken against the consumer, or if a lender reports the consumer as a poor payer.
Craig Capper, Director: Product Development, Business Intelligence and Marketing at Experian, says, "Consumer awareness and education is essential for a sophisticated credit granting industry. With Siya Zwana Experian endeavours to assist consumers to manage and understand their credit profile, and how credit grantors make decisions about granting credit."
With the Siya Zwana service, consumers can also protect themselves against the growing threat of identity fraud, where somebody uses a consumer`s ID to fraudulently obtain credit, they never intend to repay. If a lender has requested the consumer`s credit report without your permission, somebody may be using your ID number to illegally obtain credit. With Siya Zwana you will be notified of this immediately.
