    Hi,

    Is this definitely ok? Don't know why I'm suspicious, perhaps because it's free!!

    To qualify, you agree to receive monthly emails from them. And it remains to be seen what format they provide e.g. is this your "full" credit report? Or just an extract? Or not even the official report? And does their enquiry leave a footprint on your official credit file? :confused:

    I'm all for MoneySaving, but without seeing what they provide, would prefer to pay £2 for the official correct version.
    Warning ..... I'm a peri-menopausal axe-wielding maniac ;)
