As a Credit Reference Agency in the UK Experian have almost a monopoly. They are promoting a package whereby " to protect against identity theft " pay £6 a month to check your credit status regularly. There is a free 30 day trial for the on-line version.
Having completed the application form I got rejected as my address did not tally with their records- this despite the fact that we have lived here since 1986.That impressed me -not! The remedy- stick a photocopy of your passport and driving licence in the post , Mr.Seul.
Yeah that seems right- protect against identity theft by sending copies of your most important documents in the post. Strangely they cannot understand why I think that they are illogical as well as somewhat behind the times on their information.
