Review of the Experian, Credit Check:

My Credit Experian experience

Being able to check my credit score with a simple click as become useful before applying for products and also the ability to see what companies will see when viewing my credit report. Another important factor is being able to check my online identity is not being used for fraudulent purposes. Finding out how likely I am to be accepted before I apply for a product is the reason I rate Experian highly. Reviewed on: 24th May 2017

Not enough value for money

I don't want to continue the monthly fee as I am not getting enough value from this service. Sorry Reviewed on: 9th October 2016

Good but too complicated

I signed up and it's okay. I saw my credit score but didn't really understand a lot of what I was looking at. I would say it's good though Noodle is easier. Experian is definitely better than Equifax though Reviewed on: 5th September 2016

Great!

Really helped me build up my credit rating. Thank you Reviewed on: 30th June 2016

Experian helped me recover from identity theft

I discovered that my identity had been stolen. Experian provided me with the contact details for the fraud teams in the relevant companies, put a marker on my credit file to ensure that extra security checks would be carried out if any applications for credit were made in my name, and ensured that my credit rating was not affected. They did all of this in the space of a couple of days and couldn't have been more helpful. The staff were lovely, and the website is really easy to use. I am so grateful to them for everything they did to help me to recover from this awful episode. Reviewed on: 29th June 2016

Easy, quick, no hassle

I needed proof of my credit score when for some completely inexplicable reason I was turned down for a mortgage. I never did get to the bottom of why but suspect that the previous tenants had run up debts as I used to get letters addressed to them which appeared to be from credit companies and they did a moonlight flit from the address they moved to. Anyway, I set about proving my impeccable track record by obtaining my Experian score; it was so easy, quick and hassle free and in no time at all I was moving into my new home, mortgage approved. Great service! Reviewed on: 29th June 2016
