    I'd rather write to them. I think they'd be obligated to do it in that case because they wouldn't be able to try and sell you it.

    How easy is it to cancel Experian membership?

    If its a real pain I might just cancel my bank card and get a new one sent out then they cant take any more money and the membership will be cancelled that way

    This piece of advice...! :rotfl:

    I hope you havent been doing that with any other company's...!

    Haha! No I havnt. It was just a random thought I had today. Not 100% sure it would even work
  • I called and said I wanted to cancel, the guy asked me why so I said I couldn't justify paying the fee when I wasn't going to be applying for credit for at least 18 months. He said fair enough, offered me some alert subscription for 2.99 which I declined and then he cancelled it there and then. Not pushy at all, super simple to cancel it!
