Noddle Credit File

debzyg

Hiya

Just wanted some quick advice for my mother really.

I signed up to Noddles free credit report and so far have found it very useful to keep an eye on things.

I suggested it to my mom and she wanted to join to so she could review her credit file, however when I went to put her details in online it asks for some card details to verify who you are.

Now I put mine in when I registered and have had no issues but my mom gets very nervous about giving her debit card details out to anyone at all, especially online.

She would just like me to ask the question if its safe to give her cards details to them. Has anyone heard any bad stories or any bad experiences with them at all she should be aware of?

The fact that I already use it isnt enough for her, she wants to know other peoples experiences of it before she makes her mind up! Which is fair enough I guess!

Maestro.

they are a credit bureau, I'd say it's a fair bet they're safe.

She is fine - noodle is a reputable company and the product is free (don't sign up for their new Noddle Plus or whatever it's called.)

For added security, don't go to the website via any link other than the one you find on google ('noodle credit' will bring it up as the top result).

Inform your mum that even if someone did make a fraudulant purchase with her details, her bank is legally obliged to refund the money (which is why the identity theft 'insurance' from experian etc is a waste of money). She is applying to access potentially sensitive financial information - they need to prove her identity before giving access to her credit report.
