How many times can you use Experians 30 day trial?

Hi all,

I signed up to Experians 30 day trial in order to remove a financial association from a recently closed and settled account.

I'm still waiting for the account balances/statuses to be updated but my 30 days are inching closer (I even left it a few weeks before registering). Does anyone know if I cancel it if I can sign up again in a few weeks, maybe with a different email address? Bit naughty I know but I don't need the full monthly service, I just want to remove any link to my ex!

I haven't regustered with Equifax yet as I guess they all update their records at the same time. Noddle is free so no issues there.

Any advice appreciated, thanks

Hi

Signing up again with a different email does not work it tells you your details are already registered in the system as it matches your name and address.

Darn, I thought that might be a way round it.

Not to worry, I will just have to take the £14.99 hit to make sure I can remove the association.

Thanks though

After I completed the disassociation, Credit Expert wrote to me when it was completed so I didn't have to pay the extra month to wait. I've checked the free Noddle report and the association has definitely gone.

Hi Skylight,

Thanks for the tip. Sorry to sound silly but did you apply for disassociation when you still had open/outstanding balances? I tried this as soon as I registered but Experian said as there was still a balance (even though I know it's settled), they can't update anything until the companies update their records.

I think I'm jsut going to have to suck this one up!

I've done it twice, about 6 years apart.

I've done it twice in the last 6 month, using different email addresses and different debit cards.

Thanks all.

I might cancel and give it another go in a few weeks then. Unfortuntely I can't just leave the association on there, I reeeeaallly need to get it removed.

Note to self - must learn the art of patience! Haha.

Watch out. I signed up for the 30 day trial and they "forgot" to cancel it at the end. Check your bank statements for the next couple of months.

"They" can't cancel it.

You have to.

Just email them and ask them to confirm in writing that there are no financial associations on your account.

That's what I did when I joined electoral register and it didn't update on credit files properly.

They were quite quick if I remember correctly.
