Anyone know if you can purchase online access to credit data (Experian) without also having to buy such things as identity theft insurance and other stuff. I know you can go for the trial then reduce the service when you try and cancel, but I can't see where you can sign up for just the report (unlimited access).

    You can't. They are too desperate to mis-sell their useless ID theft protection and insurance.

    This is dreadful. At a time when people trying to get a mortgage are being encouraged into getting information about their credit file Experian is really cashing in attempting to get people to buy unnecessary additional services.
