Experian credit report

What’s the best way to check your Experian credit report? I found going to Experian directly you have to wait for a security code which they send in the post. I want something where I can access my credit report straight away.
I use credit karma for Transunion so recommendations for something similar for Experian would be appreciated
thanks!

Accessing your full Experian credit report via the MSE Credit Club is quick however after viewing it for the first time it only updates once a month. I cannot recall if the initial access requires anything that is sent in the post.
You can request your statutory Experian credit report but it will take about 5 working days for you to receive your access code in the post.1 -
Experian - MSE Credit club (as listed above)
Equifax - Clearscore
TransUnion - Credit Karma
MSE Credit Club/Clearscore update once a month, Credit Karma updates weekly. Good idea to keep a regular eye on all 3 reports to get a more complete picture of your credit history.0 -
If using MSE Credit Club make sure you are happy with the privacy policy. They share your details with Capital One, Transunion and Equifax as well as Experian. Basically it's free rein on your credit data.
