Quoted from Guardian:

With the date confirmed for 6 May, Britain’s credit reference agencies are urging people to ensure they are registered to vote. Not only can you have your say on who runs the country, but being on the electoral roll improves your credit status. In fact, if you are not on it, you may find it more difficult to get a loan, loan, credit card or insurance.

Wow. I hadn’t quite realised that registering to vote could make such a big difference to one’s credit rating. Although I’ve never registered or voted this is certainly making me reconsider.
