Does Danbury mint report to any agencies?

Evening all,

I wanted to check if anybody knows if Danbury mint (danburymint[.co.uk]) reports to any of the credit agencies. My wife has bought an item from them, which is to be paid in 5 installments. This in itself is fine, were we not waiting for completion/exchange on a house purchase with a mortgage. I don't really want any new credit agreements showing up on our files till completion is behind us and if my wife had asked, I would have just bought the item for her without going down the installments route. Part of me is hoping they don't report to the agencies, otherwise we'll have to scramble to cancel the order, so nothing is added to her file, or it at least will be shown as settled well before completion for the mortgage.

    It will depend if they use a partner finance company.

    When I changed my laptop 4 years ago, I did it over 2 years on 0% finance, and this was offered and provided through Barclays.
