Electoral Roll

Page history last edited by Anneli Sarkanen 1 wk ago

Websites which offer services to search the Electoral Roll (edited register) and general people search services:

 

  • 192.com - some free searching available, but limited results, and registration required. Cost is by pre-loaded credits but its hard to tell exactly how much each search costs and how many credits remain
  • http://www.onlinesearches.info/  - various pricing options available
  • http://www.eroll.co.uk - registration required
  • CreditSafe (Trace & Verify) - good service, offers same information as 192.com and results can be printed/downloaded into a more "authoritiative" format.
  • Quick Address Pro (QAS) - service offered by Experian. Annual per user subscription service.

 

The edited register is the only register of electorall roll available to commercial sources. The edited register does not contain details of all people on the electorall roll as individuals are able to opt-out of it. Therefore, if a person you are looking for does not appear using one of the services above at the address you think, it could be that they have removed themselves from the edited register or moved house.

 

The following companies are the only ones allowed to access to the Full Register (for credit/AML checks): Equifax, Experian, and Call Credit

For those interested in the future of the edited register, there is a consultation on the future of the edited register - whether to abolish it, or make it Opt-In. Closes in Feb 2010: http://www.justice.gov.uk/consultations/electoral-registers-consultation.htm
