Your Credit Report is a snapshot of all the borrowings and credit products you may have ever requested or held with any bank or financial institution operating in the UAE. When you apply for credit - whether for a credit card, an auto loan, a mortgage etc. - lenders are mandated to consult the AECB Credit Report to evaluate your ability to borrow and understand the potential risk associated to the application.

Banks and Financial Institutions, each within their risk appetite boundaries, analyze the healthiness of a Credit Report (the level of exposure, the repayment history, etc.) when making a decision on providing credit. A healthy credit report with timely payments, balanced level of indebtedness, wise usage of credit, etc. favors your ability to get new or additional credit.

The information in a customer’s credit report is provided by all financial institutions that the customer requests or holds credit with in the UAE, as required by Federal Law, in addition to other sources such as telecom companies and utilities.

Credit reports issued by the Bureau include details about consumers’ debt levels, financial obligations, credit payments history and default payments for the past 24 months.

Customers can get their Credit Report anytime and anywhere using Al Etihad Credit Bureau (AECB) online services or the AECB mobile application. The app is available for both iOS and Android users on Apple and Google stores. To download, please use links below or visit aecb.gov.ae

From the app the client can select the report type and complete the payment. And they will receive the report via email within minutes. Alternatively, clients can visit Customer Happiness Centers from Sunday to Thursday: 8:00am to 3:30pm and Saturday: 9:00am to 12:30pm to request a report, charges will also apply for this option. For more details, please visit www.aecb.gov.ae.

Towards the end of your credit report there is a section called “Credit Providers” in this section each provider (bank, telecommunications company etc.) will be assigned a provider number (3 digital alpha numeric code) which is listed beside the Provider Description (company name). This same provider number will show beside the application or credit facility and this is how you will know which provider a particular application or facility relates to

If you have applied unsuccessfully for a credit facility, this application will continue to show under the applications section or your credit report. However, only successful applications will appear in the Credit Facility section of your report. Rejected applications cannot be removed entirely from the report as the application was made, regardless of outcome, and Citi must report in alignment with the Credit Reporting Guidelines as stipulated by the AECB.

Disbursed status means the loan or card has been approved. Funds have been disbursed by the provider bank

Requested status means the loan or card has been requested by the customer via an application. If an application is successful it will move to “Disbursed” status. If you continue to see an application under ‘Requested’ status on your latest Credit report, even though it has been decisioned (approved, cancelled or rejected) please feel free to reach out to us.

We are committed to ensure your Citi credit record in AECB is up-to-date, but if you believe that recent updates in your account activity are not accurately reflected on your Credit Report, we advise you to:

  • Ensure you are checking the most recent Credit Report
  • Allow 10 working days, for any recent account activity such as payments, changes in account status etc., to be accurately reflected on your Credit Report.

We recommend that you obtain a copy of your most current credit report so we can accurately investigate what has occurred.

If you have a copy of this report you can submit the dispute via email to CBDisputes@citi.com and include the following information:

  1. Attach the credit report you are referring to (PDF or images) and include the date the report was generated
  2. Provide your Citi Credit Card or Loan account number
  3. Provide you registered mobile number with Citi
  4. Provide details of the information you believe is inaccurate on your report

Based on the nature of the update required, resolutions of emails sent to Citi may take up to 20 working days.

In case you want to dispute any information reported by another institution, you may write to AECB at disputes@aecb.gov.ae

More information is available on the information center on the AECB website www.aecb.gov.ae

Password and Account Protection.

There are several ways to protect your password.

Make it memorable. Pick something you'll remember. If you do need to write it down, make sure it's kept in a safe location and not available to anyone but you. Also, since this will be the password you need to access your accounts, take the time to think of a good strong one.

Change it periodically. Make sure to change your password from time to time using the Change Password link below. If you ever suspect that someone may have your password, don't take chances and change it immediately.

Don't share it. No one representing the Citigroup family of companies will ask for your password in any way other than through the secure Web form on our Web site. And you should never give it to anyone who asks for it via e-mail, phone or any other medium-even if they say they're from Citigroup.

Always sign off. End your session properly by selecting "sign off" and then closing the browser window-especially if you're using a PC at an Internet cafe or other public place.

Update your browser. If a security update becomes available, it's a good idea to install it.
