Experian!

I really wanted to get my experian account reopened so I could make sure everything now all sorted.

But I can not justify 15 a month on it - I am sure it was only 7/8 before? They say its because of the insurance but we dont get any option to opt out.

I am really disappointed cos I thought this was the best one to look over to check things :(

    I tried registering with them but they could not validate me?

    I would happily pay £7 every month to make sure my credit report is correct :(

    If you are worried about your credit rating. I am sure you can afford £15 you can cancel it straight away.......

    I wanted to do it for an ongoing thing to make sure everything ok - other reason is I have an SOB of an ex husband who when I left kept all my paperwork and has a lot of sisters who took his side.

    I want to check repayments are being noted correctly but also that no more accounts opened up fraudulently which means I do need a message telling me if anything changes on my report

    I used to me a member for I think £7.99 a month, something like that. So was shocked that it's now £15! I also think there should be an insurance 'opt out' as if £6.90pm is that then I would definitely opt out

    I've signed back up but it will only be for this month as I can't justify it, and I feel a bit miffed that I've paid that much to be honest, that's and easy £15 they've made!

    I thought it was around that - I do feel should be opt out just taking advantage really
