checkmyfile.com.... proof of identity ??

i urgently need to check out my credit history etc .

been looking at martins article on checkmyfile.com

have looked at their website and get the general drift.

how quickly do you get the info ?
does it come by post or email ?
how do they check out your identity to ensure you're asking and getting only your information and not about anyone else ??

thanks
