Aqua Free Credit Checker

Can anyone tell me if this free service Aqua are now offering is the free anyway access that you already get from Noddle?

Or does it include the extra bit that Noddle advertise and want £20 for?

Thanks

Sounds exactly the same to me, just Aqua branded.

Is Noddle any good? I have never heard of it.

Probably much the same as Noddle where it gets information 2 months behind from the big 3.

I have had Noddle since its launch, I can't complain to be fair a free report once a month isn't bad for nothing. I have had Aqua for 18 months now and can't really complain about them either.

I have signed up for the Aqua access as well now, if it includes the extra info that they normally charge for, it has to be worth a go for free. Its about time the other CRA'S gave free access as well. I'll update this thread when I find out exactly what I do get through Aquas service. In the meantime if anyone has already got this, I would appreciate confirmation of what you do actually get.

As we all know just because it says you get, doesn't actually mean you will.

Has anyone had any info on this after signing up?

I'd be interested to know the same, and can we convert from a standard Noddle account to the Aqua branded one with the free premium services ?

Thanks
