Ex Wife - Identity Theft/Fraud

After years of financial abuse and identity theft by my husband’s ex wife resulting in copious amounts of debt, loans, phone contracts etc the list goes on and not knowing where to start, the staff here have reached out and as I type this are still working on things as are the other credit agencies. Thank you so much as honestly it has just been horrendous and without these companies god only knows what people could get away with! Albeit she already has !!! She should be locked up for the fraud she has committed and I guess still is!

Disappointing refund policy

They offer a short free trial and then automatically charge £14.99 per month. What I found particularly disappointing is their refund policy. Unlike many other subscription businesses, they refused to provide a refund even though I cancelled on the very first day after the trial ended. They just try to earn when you forget to cancel.

Hi there,

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We're sorry to hear that you are unhappy with the response you've received from our team regarding your refund request. 

We do our best to ensure that all customers signing up for Checkmyfile are aware of our subscription charge and the length of our free trial. 

This is outlined on the registration page, when you enter your card details and in our terms of use. We also include the due date for the first subscription payment in our Welcome email.

We allow all customers to cancel during their free trial period and still use their remaining trial days, to prevent anyone who just wants to use the free trial from seeing an unwanted payment debited.

That having been said, our team does its best to treat all refund requests fairly and offer help where we can, and I'm sorry to hear that this hasn't been your experience.

We'd really appreciate the opportunity to review the response you've received. If you haven't already, please get back in touch with our team. 

Let us know what happened and what could have been done to give you a more positive experience, and we'll review our process and provide an outcome as soon as possible.

Thanks again for reaching out.

Always my go to, as it checks all the credit reference agencies. And it's super easy to cancel when you want, and rejoin when you want. Far better than Experian.
