Free credit score check

I've used Experian and Equifax before to obtain a free credit check report and cancelled within the 30 day trial period. Are there any other places I can go to because when I try to go back for another trial period (understandably) they say I'm an existing customer and try to charge me £15 per month.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

    Yup. Pay for the £2 statutory report from each.

    Noddle is Callcredit's free, branded service that updates monthly.
    Callcredit is the 3rd and final consumer facing Credit Reference Agency in the UK and was established by Skipton Building Society until it was sold to a private equity firm, so it's not surprising that Skipton search Callcredit for credit applications.
