Cifas Marker

I have a cifas marker from Barclays they done investigation and everything and they said they can’t remove the markers so they are going to send me a final letter but they advised me to see the FOS. Does police gets involved in this? And also how can I get them removed if not from the bank?

Hi, how did this happen? Did you let someone do fraud on your account?

Call Cifas and say your willing and able to pay a full and final settlement (assuming you are).

You can contact them on 0330 100 0180 (Monday to Friday from 9am to 5pm)

I asked this before in a Cifas marker thread. Someone suggested that people were finding the previous threads on TSR via google etc, and then making their own.

No, the OP would need to pay.

This is not what a CIFAS marker is, again.
It is not something to pay off.

Nothing.
The person who I quoted is under the impression that it is a debt that they need to pay to get the marker lifted.
It is not.
It can only be lifted if you can prove that you had nothing to do with whatever activity made them suspicious/investigate in the first place or after 6 years.

There is no debt, I've never suggested there is a debt to be paid off.

So what “settlement” are you suggesting that they phone and say they will pay off?

Give Cifas a ring and explain your situation and they'll explain.

I’m not in the situation.
I am well aware that it is not something you can “phone up and settle”
Not sure why you keep telling people that they can?
Unless you’re just trolling with them?

you can’t pay off a CIFAS marker unfortunately. only way to get it removed, is to prove you didn’t do anything wrong.

How did you deal with your previous Cifas marker, or deal with Cifas as an appointed representative of someone with a marker?

Or are you like many people on here, advising about something of which you have no lived experience of?

Is that the way you approached your marker? How difficult was it to prove that?

Such as yourself?
Who seems to be providing “advise” that has nothing to do with a CIFAS marker?
