Namecheck tenant check searches the names you have entered, for history provided by Ministry of Justice records:

All Tenancy Tribunal orders are presented in written form for you to read online. The majority of Tenancy Tribunal decisions are provided but not all orders are made public due to legal requirements or an adjudicator’s decision to not permit publication of the decision.
Namecheck makes every reasonable effort to ensure it achieves the highest level of accuracy possible when recording the names of the parties involved. However the Tribunal and Namecheck is reliant upon the party who initiated the proceedings to accurately identify the parties.
The data published on this site is accurate to within a week of the any decisions being published.
We store a large volume of published tribunal orders, we update new outcomes on a weekly basis. Namecheck  has no need to remove its stored information at the end of three years; so orders and references may include older history older than that currently published on  Ministry of Justice Tenancy Tribunal Orders Online service.
References were few in 2015 but this number has grown as more landlords lodge their references online. It is a quick and easy final means to communicate a reference. A standard form is provided online with a template prompt for a fast reference. Accuracy and strict guidelines must be adhered to by those lodging references.
Results of tenant name searches are either orders of the tribunal made by independent judicial offers (Tenancy Adjudicators) or former landlords and Agents references and cannot be altered in anyway. The same care to accurate detail applies to the online references, by former Landlords and Agents, as applied to orders and mediation.
If an Order is stayed or overturned as a result of a re-hearing, the original Order may not be published. But you may on occasion read both. ( administrative delay with removal of original )
Please also note this website’s more general disclaimer ” We do not alter any of the information placed on our site.”  Only the Tribunal itself can amend the Order through the statutory re-hearing or appeal provisions.
General forms are provided for printing and your use any time at no charge and do include our logo and some extra questions in reference to the id you used .
Namecheck is operating a business located in New Zealand, the price displayed is in New Zealand dollars ( NZD) and all transactions are billed in New Zealand dollars.

Namecheck does not share client’s details. Please read our privacy policy for more detail.
Only the landlord (or Accommodation Agent who issued reference ) can amend their reference at their discretion. Namecheck can consider breeches of accuracy on a case by case listing, then strive for an outcome where possible, to highlight breech.
