How To Remove Your Name from CRB List
If you have defaulted your payments and are listed by the CRB, you may need to first clear the loan with your lender.
Additionally, if it is a bank or a huge loan that you cannot clear in one payment, you will have to visit your local branch and renegotiate with your lender on the new terms of settling the debt.
It is only until you clear your pending defaulted premiums that you will restore your credit score.
Once you have settled your scores with the lender, it normally takes a day or two for your new credit score ratings to reflect on CRB.
Remember that a CRB certificate of clearance is only valid for the day of issuance due to the daily borrower record updates.
CRB has licensed three institutions to disseminate Kenyans credit information including Metropol, Creditinfo and Credit Reference Bureau Africa.
Metropol.
You register by visiting their website metropol.co.ke or metropolcorporation.com or by dialing *433# on your mobile phone for Safaricom customers only.
You will, however, be required to pay a registration fee of Ksh100 after which you will receive a code in form of SMS, you will then use the code to access your report on the website.
Transunion
Whoever decides to get their credit information from TransUnion will be required to visit crbafrica.com or transunionafrica.com where you will fill in the forms and send them back.
For you to always get credit reports from Transunion, all one has to do is send their name to 21272, a message that will cost Ksh50.
Creditinfo
Just like the other two, one has to simply visit creditinfo.co.ke to register and will afterward be getting an annual report on their credit status on your email address.
However, if you have already registered in any of the three CRSs, you can easily request for your clearance certificate from the specific website(s) for free.
