Review of the Experian, Credit Check:

Close to impossible to cancel

2
I tried Experian to get my credit score and to hopefully improve it. No problems so far, but when I tried to cancel it, they ignored it and took more money from my account. It took a very very long time and too many complaints before I got my account cancelled and my money back. Reviewed on: 6th May 2016

Credit check review

I have signed up to there monthly credit check forms. I think the forms are returned so that they are easy to read and understand. I have found that lately when I request a form it's taking quite a long time to come through. Sometimes I have to request it twice to get one. Reviewed on: 26th June 2016

Helped me when I needed them!

5
I was recently the victim of Identity Theft, and Experian quickly helped me sort out the mess through their Credit Expert service, which was completely free for the first month. They were competent and reassuring and made the stress of the situation go away. Thank you Experian! Reviewed on: 22nd June 2016

Free trial hassle free

I signed up for their free trial, was hassle free and easy to cancel when I didn't need it anymore. Would recommend. Reviewed on: 22nd June 2016

Better, free alternatives available

3
Experian is the industry standard and has been for along time, however both ClearScore and Noddle now offer essentially the same service but for free. I think it's time for Experian to reduce their monthly subscription cost or offer a free service with advertising or similar as their data is of good quality. Reviewed on: 21st June 2016

Credit Check

Quick and full of information. Gave a good breakdown of credit and showed where it could be improved. Customer service were very helpful. Reviewed on: 21st June 2016

Identity theft prevention

4
After a family member was a victim of identity theft I thought it would be wise to check on my credit score. It's worth the money nowadays to check up on these things and stop it before it gets out of control. Reviewed on: 21st June 2016

They tell you your credit report accurately. I think they sell your details on though

3
It's a good company to check your credit report but i think they sell your details on as after you sign up you get a lot of ppi calls Reviewed on: 21st June 2016
