What is Referencing (Tenancy Assessment Report)?

The referencing section is a tenancy assessment report similar to a credit check (it's impossible to do a credit check on a tenant because no credit is provided).

Accessing the new referencing can be found here. 

The tenancy assessment report checks public data such as:

• Electoral roll check at the applicant's current and previous addresses.
• A tenancy assessment score predicts the applicant's likelihood to pay.
• A Public Information check to ascertain whether the applicant has CCJs, bankruptcy orders or voluntary arrangements.
• A check to see if the applicant has any undisclosed addresses.

If no information can be found from the information provided, which produces a score of 0, you will not be charged, and your credits will be refunded.
