Equifax - Should I Register?

OK well I am currently in a Debt Management Plan with CCCS and all my debts are being paid fine.
Is it worth registering for a trial with Equifax (can get £5 cashback on fatcheese.co.uk) to have a look at my credit rating or is there really not much point?
Thanks

If your on DMP it wont look very nice, mostly lots of missed payments and defaults at a guess. It is upto you if you want to see it.Although no trees were harmed during the creation of this post, a large number of electrons were greatly inconvenienced.
There are two ways of constructing a software design: One way is to make it so simple that there are obviously no deficiencies, and the other way is to make it so complicated that there are no obvious deficiencies0 -
To be honest you are probably just better off getting the statutory report (£2).
You can set up for the free trial, but from what I have seen on this forum, they make it difficult to cancel (a long winded and not obvious process).
If you intend to monitor your credit record, it is probably worth just buying the statutory report every few months. It'll save a lot of money in the long run.
The "score" feature is a waste of time so I wouldn't bother with that.
