    Fill out the form and send a cheque or postal order. This is Equifax but they'll be an equivalent for the others.

    Of course you won't be able to get it instantly on line this way as you'll have to wait for the letter the arrive and then for your postal report to come back.
    With regard to cancelling your free trial, it's just a quick phone call to either

    There are anecdotal reports of it being harder than this
    e.g. waiting 40 mins or 1 hour on the phone.

    While the CreditExpert free trial is generally limited to one per customer, we do occasionally run additional promotions. Tixy is right, the only way you can get a report without providing card details is to send for a paper report using a £2 cheque or postal order. I don't think it's difficult to cancel our free trial and I'm glad others agree.
