Tips To Avoid Identity Theft When Moving



1. Re-direct your post as soon as you move - this will ensure your mail will not go to your previous address and cannot be intercepted
2. Buy a shredder – shred any personal documents before placing them in the bin
3. Inform your credit card companies, bank and other financial organisations you have a relationship with that you have moved – and make sure they update their systems
4. Register with the Mailing Preference Service at your old address
5. Sign up to a credit monitoring service free 30 day trial – use a credit monitoring service to keep tabs on your credit report and receive alerts if anyone fraudulently applies for credit using your identity
