Anyone know where to subscribe for personal credit check events notifications ?

I've been told that if you inspect your own credit rating too many times this could in itself lower your Credit Rating.

Any advice would be much appreciated.

Your credit rating has just been lowered because of this post.

you can use CallCredit http://www.noddle.co.uk which is free. You will just be shown adverts/sent emails about products they think you might be interested in.

When my bank account was raided to the tune of £3.5 I had a letter from call credit when I hadn't signed up for their services, I suspect the fraudster used them to get my info and set up a bank account with Tesco + one a off direct debit. Tesco were completely unapologetic about not doing proper checks and call credit were much the same. 's

Experian were good, I used their service to monitor until I was happy nothing else was going on.

Same here with experian, I set up alerts for any activity on my account. I even got emailed when i used confused.com to compare car insurance. The alerts notified me that a credit search was done, including the a ref and telephone number, so I could follow it up.
