This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

The preparation and scoring of credit reports is a matter for individual credit reference agencies in cooperation with lenders, not the Government or Parliament. The UK's three credit reference agencies have all issued statements and advice about what people should do if they are facing financial difficulties as a result of the outbreak. You can find these here:

TransUnion: www.transunion.com/covid-19
Equifax: www.equifax.com/about-equifax/covid-19-and-your-credit-score/
Experian: www.experian.co.uk/consumer/help-discover/discover/guides/supporting-you.html

We have published a petition calling on the Government to encourage credit agencies to show consideration to negative transactions that have occurred during the coronavirus outbreak, which you may wish to sign: petition.parliament.uk/petitions/314622
