Not sure why they shouldn't all do this.

But, of course, they should but they won't unless Noddle proves popular and they come under political pressure to make the information freely available.

We should probably expect Experian to hold out till hell freezes over.

I do believe we have yet to even get to 0 Kelvin so that might be some time, lol. :beer:

I also received the email and have set up my account using the link. Worked fine for me.

I have to agree with others that it is confusing and unclear whether you're being charged or not.

One thing I need find was if you are on a promotional rate with your cc and there is a balance outstanding it does not show that you have a reduced rate. With Experian it is clearly laid out.

Hi there, I received the email today stating i need my credit card to verify, I do not own a credit card, so can this be done with a debit card?

It was fine for me with a Visa debit.

My report indicates promotional rates on the third line under the 24-month payment/account-status lines.

Is that what you are looking for?

Yep was going to say mine clearly states on a promotional rate for one of my CC's.

Got the email today as well.

Have to say that I am a bit disappointed that they are obviously ignoring security best practices - ie URL in link (a href) is different from the text shown and email uses phrases like "Click on the link below" (when the usual advice is to never just click on random links in emails).

Their DNS setup for mail.noddle.co.uk is also a bit dodgy.

I wonder how many spam filters classify that email as a possible scam...

On the plus side: the email had a valid DKIM signature.

The whole thing looks a bit scary to me too. I would want to see a link to https://www.noddle.co.uk/something and a clear follow through process, followed by a site with a working Verisign button - the one on Callcreditcheck.com is just an image with no link through to VS! And I would have expected that £12 charge to be replaced by "Free as you're a Noddle customer" or something like that.
