    You may have used one of the various sites like creditreport.co.uk which work with the main agencies. But if you did then it will still be one of the main agencies that is actually providing your report so you would probably need to cancel with the actual credit agency. Have you had the report yet? If not then when you do get your report it should be clear from which agency the report has been provided. I think there is only Experian, Equifax and CallCredit whatever trading names and partners they work with. Also when you get the report if it does come via a third party go to their website and check their T&Cs for cancelling.

    There are only three consumer credit reference agencies in the UK but each offers and range of services and some work with third party suppliers too. Perhaps you'll have to just keep an eye on your bank statement to see if a charge appears - then you'll be able to identify the website I guess.
