Hi there,
ClearScore seem to ask an awful lot of questions before you can get any info. Has anyone else used them to have a look at their file? Would you recommend them?

Clear score, just a platform to offer you more debt. Like noodle and MSE credit club best avoided. Just send off your £2 for a proper report

They are free, updated monthly and you aren't forced to take out any loans or credit cards.
Within a month your £2 credit report could be out of date.0 -

Agreed. Someone on here recommended it for me and I think it's brilliant. Have never felt the need to use it to apply for credit (or Noddle, which I've had for donkeys years). Would always do my research and then check out what's on Top Cashback.0 -
Noodle...
"Unfortunately we cannot currently generate a credit report for you. This is because you don’t currently have enough of a credit history to populate a full credit file. But that’s where we’re here to help. With your Noddle account you will find information about building a credit file and accessing your credit report as well as services to help you save money on the important things in life, from utilities and broadband to high street shopping."
Well, I've been stoozing crazy amounts of debt for years so unless I take offers of debt through Noodle...
Nuff said.
Far better to get a £2 report every year or so instead of this nonsense.
Cheers
PS Clearscore is very basic and MSE credit club did not work.0 -
People who are going to get more debt will no matter what clearscore happens to suggest!0

Maybe try Noddle instead of Noodle.0

You really need to have more self control if them offering you credit products means you have to avoid them!
Why pay £6 a year when you don't have to pay anything!0
