Follow the link. Give them the details they needs.
You will have to give them a credit card too, this is for verification of credentials. (But note! They will charge you after the 30 day period so make a note in your diary to cancel for the time is up)
Set up your account and then a few days later a "PIN" will arrive which gives you access to the site.

Some interesting things on there. We found that a previous owner of the house who had a similar name to my wife's was affecting her credit score!

Worth checking out to see if your the victim of ID theft!


I think Experian (who are credit expert) are one of three Credit Agencies that banks, phone companies, shops etc use to check to see if they can give you credit and store cards.

I am new to this forum so if you like this thread, give me a "Thanks".

    Hi UK potters

    Thanks for the post - very useful.

    Might want to move this post to the appropriate forum - debt etc as there are plenty of people who would value this info.

  • ukpotters, I'm not really sure that this is a Grabbit as there are quite a few other threads on CreditExpert one of the main one's being this:

    Nevertheless, if you are going to use them then go through Quidco as you get £5 for just signing up for a free trial :)
