    I think the OP should amend the title of this thread....

    Scam.....

    Never its there in big bold print....

    Scam is when you only find out when its so well hidden you don't realise. :mad:


    Some people are paying other co's £19.99 a month for the self same waste of time....

    End of the day whoever is providing the loan etc. Will make their own mind up and no matter waht any of these scores say is meaning less. :rotfl:

    "Meaning less", as you say. I consider attempting to persuade people to pay for a worthless, meaningless, service a scam. Presumably you do not.

    You have your opinion and I have mine. I guess that is why some of you are easier to scam than others.

    Everyone's definition of a worthless, meaningless, service is different.

    All the CRA's charge. Some more than others. Doesn't make it a scam.

    It's not a scam.

    If you don't want/need the service, then don't pay for it.

    There is no nned to criticise people for wanting to spend money on this servuce.

    Noddle boasts: "Sign up for your credit score today".

    Not a credit score, but your credit score. The words "your credit score" suggest there is only one.

    I thought you'd be here long enough to know that's not the case.

    Out of interest, which companies does Noddle credit score for?

    "Your", "a"... just words, and still doesn't make it a scam.

    They all do it, so it's not a scam. Nice logic.

    Fair point. Some people like being scammed.

    What part of "if you don't need or want a service, then don't pay for it" don't you understand?

    I think paying £1 extra for a special exclusive seat in the cinema is a worthless, meaningless, service. Doesn't make it a scam. I simply don't pay any extra for it, but I still get to watch the same film.
