How To Understand Your Equifax Repayment History Information (RHI) in 2019

Quick Background (condensed)

March 2014 saw the introduction of Repayment History Information (RHI) within the Privacy Act (1988)
Information to be recorded when you pay your bills more than 14 days late
July 2018 saw legislation to force Licensed Credit Providers (LCP) to supply RHI

Proposed Purpose

Offer greater transparency as to the creditworthiness of individuals
Reduce LCP [new client] risk by identifying consistent slow payers
Offer lower rates and better terms to individuals that pay on time
A slight reduction in credit score

Anecdotal Result (to date)

Inconsistent information being provided by LCP to Equifax (and others)
RHI alone being the cause of Home Loan / Finance declines
Significant reduction in credit scores
Confusion over how to understand the RHI tables

I have included a table below (which is a slightly modified version and a combination of data published by Equifax and others), explaining how to understand your Equifax Repayment History Information (RHI) in 2019.

Please comment below if you have additional information about RHI that you think will help.

What Now?

If your Credit Rating is polluted with black marks, and if those black marks (Judgments, Defaults, Enquiries) are the reason you can’t get finance, and if your life would be easier (and better) with a clean, sparkling, and shiny credit file you can be proud of, then you deserve a second chance, don’t you?
