Have used Experian on & off

Have used Experian on & off over several years. It is a very good way to mange your finance’s, but alerting you to connections to others & been able to update them. Security locking your account & the dark web. There are different levels of access & easy to change. At least try it.

It's good for keeping me informed about things I need to know
The only things I don't like is the price I'd have to pay per month to become a full member It's far too much to pay so I find this very disappointing it's the only thing that's stopping me from becoming a full member it needs to be at least half of what is being charged now

Hi Philip,

It's great to hear that you've found the service useful for keeping you informed and up to date with your credit information.

I can also understand your comments about the cost of a full membership. We appreciate that customers have different budgets, and what feels like good value to one person may not feel affordable to another. It's understandable that the subscription price would be a deciding factor when considering whether to upgrade.

We're grateful you've taken the time to share both the positives and the areas where you feel we could do better.

Best wishes,

Stefan.

Hi Joanne,

I'm sorry to hear you've been left feeling confused by the change to your score.

I can understand why this would be frustrating, especially if nothing has changed from your perspective and you were hoping for a clear explanation. When you monitor your score regularly, it's natural to want to know exactly what's caused it to move.

While changes to your score are usually linked to information held on your credit report, I appreciate that's not much help if you're unable to identify what has changed or why the score has been affected. Depending on the type of membership you have, some additional details, including factors that may have influenced a score change, may not be available within your account.

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We understand how important it is for customers to have confidence in the information they're seeing.

Best wishes,

Stefan.

Experian can restore your credit rating

My house burnt down in Sept 2025 and I had a deal with a ccard company to pay off x amount a month and instead of acknowledging it. They told Experian I defaulted every month. Experian contacts the companies for you. To rectify the problem

Hi Henk,

I'm sorry to hear about the circumstances you've been through. Dealing with the aftermath of a house fire is difficult enough without then having concerns about how an account is being reported on your credit report.

I can understand how frustrating it must have been if you had agreed a payment arrangement with the credit card company but were still seeing negative information being recorded. That said, I'm pleased to hear that we were able to contact the company on your behalf to help investigate the issue.

We appreciate you sharing your experience and are glad we could assist in getting the matter looked into.

Best wishes,

Stefan.
