Review of the MBNA, Credit Card:

View on product page

Bombarded

I took out this out as my first credit card, as the sign up bonus was quote good. I didn't use it much but this didn't stop them sending me endless amounts of post re: balance transfer offers and other cards which i did not need at all. I got so annoyed with all of this spam I got another card and closed this one (which was a convoluted process in itself) and would never use them again. Reviewed on: 14th June 2016

Review of the Halifax, Reward Current Account:

Friendly staff

I had to visit a branch to reset my online details which was fairly inconvenient, however the staff in the Newcastle Haymarket branch were very friendly and helpful and dealt with my concern as quickly as they could. Reviewed on: 2nd June 2016

Review of the Aviva, Car Insurance:

View on product page

Smashed my current renewal quote

My renewal came through this year at about 300 more expensive than the previous year. Though this was following an accident and subsequent claim, so i had expected it to rise, I still got a quote from Aviva which actually came in 100 quid cheaper than my previous year! I then got 60odd quid cash back too which was nice bonus. their online portal is one of the better ones i have seen too - you can upload docs there and generally get everything you need relatively easily.

Review of the MORE THAN, Home Insurance:

View on product page

Who knows, couldn't get a quote

Trying to get a quote for home insurance for my new build and chose More than as they had a great cash back offer. I could not get a quote as my new address is (understandably) not listed on the address finder tool yet - but without a valid address, the system wouldn't allow me to continue. Poorly functioning website = customer lost... Reviewed on: 17th May 2016

Review of the Noddle, Credit Check:

View on product page

Not too sure

After seeing extensive advertising from Noddle, I gave in and got my free credit report from them. At the first attempt, the system couldn't find me at all, which is strange given I haven't moved about a lot etc. Nonetheless I persisted and tried again. This time it found me, however I don't have a great deal of confidence that my score was accurate. It doesn't show all of my credit (including some things which Experian definitely did pick up on). I think Experian offers a more comprehensive score, though obviously Noddle is free to it's best to use both. Reviewed on: 8th April 2016
