# Funding Updates

## When you register for funding updates VMC will notify you when a funding request shows on your client's credit search - this helps to understand where their mortgage application is in the overall process of being reviewed.

### **Feature:**

- Experian are one of our data partners and when you register for mortgage updates, they will send VMC a notification when a funding request has been registered against your customers credit history. This provides a better understanding of where their mortgage application is in the overall process.
- Note: this does not affect your customers credit history and there is no cost for this service 
- All you need to do is click register for mortgage updates, fill out the form and let Experian and ViewMyChain do the rest.
- A date in the ‘funding applied’ milestone will be populated when information is received.
- Experian will monitor the request for 3 months. If no request for funding is registered during this time they will close the case - Experian are not the only credit reference agency so may not capture everyone, but there is a high percentage they will.

### **Benefits:**

- Understand where your client's mortgage application is in the overall process
- Provides a better indication as to when you may hear from a surveyor
- Makes it easier to know when to chase
- Easier to identify potential problems
