What happened

A follow-on complaint about how the bureau handled my earlier grievance and its enquiry-alert process.

What I asked the Ombudsman for

Examination of the bureau's conduct after the first closure, including disputes it had raised in my name that I never made.

What the entity said

The bureau treated my grievance as a question about my credit score, which it was not.

What the Ombudsman decided

Not a valid complaint: it did not indicate a specific deficiency and was in the nature of suggestions or queries.

Did not help

Did the Ombudsman help?

No. A complaint that named a duplicate profile, a refusal to disclose and unauthorised disputes was closed as containing no specific deficiency.

What I took from it

A complaint has to name one concrete failure that happened to you and one remedy. Anything that reads like a proposal for how the entity should work gets this clause.
