Deceptive marketing methods

Lure you in with the promise of viewing a company credit file for free but then nothing happens other than you being pestered with emails and calls. It is just a deceptive way to gain your contact details so they can try and sell you their products. Very annoyed.

Hi Austin,

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience, and we’re sorry to hear how frustrating this has been.

To confirm, we always aim to speak with you before sending a company credit report so we can walk through the details, explain the information, and ensure it’s useful and relevant to what you’re looking for. However, we will always happily provide a copy of the report.

Please reach out to our Customer Service Team so we can look into this for you and resolve it as quickly as possible. You can email us at help@creditsafeuk.com
or call 02920 886500.

We appreciate your feedback and the opportunity to put this right.

Kind regards,
The Creditsafe Team

Hello Neil,

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We’re sorry to hear that your experience didn’t meet expectations.

We were surprised to read that you found our service costly, as we’re widely regarded as one of the most competitively priced providers in the market. That said, we understand that value can be perceived differently depending on individual needs.

We’d also really appreciate some clarification on what you felt was “long-winded.” Our usability and onboarding processes are designed to be streamlined and straightforward, so understanding where things felt slow or complex would be extremely helpful for us to review and improve the experience.

If you’d be willing to share a bit more detail, please feel free to contact us at help@creditsafeuk.com. We’re always keen to learn from feedback and make improvements where we can.

Kind regards,
The Creditsafe Team

Great experience

We had been with our previous provider for years and the price just kept increasing, I rang Credit Safe and the friendly helpful staff listened to what we needed and quoted on the best package for us. We were able to trial the system and found it much more user friendly than the previous provider. The switch over was hassle free and we are more than happy to be working with credit safe, we would highly recommend.

Hi Nigel,

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re pleased to hear that you found the training useful, but we’re very sorry to learn about your experience with the sales process and the missed phone call leading up to it. That’s certainly not the level of service we aim to provide.

We’d really appreciate the opportunity to look into this further and make things right. Please could you share a few more details with us by emailing help@creditsafeuk.com or by calling our support team on 02920 886500. We’d be more than happy to assist and address your concerns.

Kind regards,
The Creditsafe Team

Don't bother clicking for a 'free' review....

As a business I can understand the need to collect some customer details before giving out 'free' information however, their advert is a complete lie. See below, from their own website....

"Free Company Credit Check
Get your free company credit score and report from Creditsafe
Enter a company name to see its credit score, payment history, CCJs, and financial health in seconds."

Well... you don't actually get anything in seconds other than a response saying a member of the team will be in touch soon. Of course the get out will be that 'in seconds' could theoretically last forever but at least inform potential customers that your procedure is for a call back and not a free credit report in seconds once your details have been submitted!

After I did not receive anything from you 'in seconds' I'm glad I read a couple of reviews about your company and how poor your service appears to be. Especially recently.
In my eyes you have blatantly lied and even if your services are fantastic after this, I would rather not have any dealings with a company that is not forthright in how they deal with its potential customers from the get go! Your customer journey seriously needs looking at or you'll end up with plenty more 1 star reviews...

Hi Rob,

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We’re genuinely sorry that the process left you feeling frustrated — that is certainly not how we want potential customers to feel when engaging with us.

We would, however, like to clarify and refute the suggestion that we are misleading or lying. A free company credit report is always provided.

Our process involves first speaking with you to talk through the report and its particulars, as credit information can be complex and we want to ensure it is fully understood and genuinely useful. Following this conversation, a copy of the free report is sent to you.

Your feedback about our wording and customer journey is really valuable, and we’ll be sharing it internally as we continue to review how we communicate this more clearly from the outset.

If you would like to discuss this further, we’d welcome the opportunity to do so. Please feel free to call us on 02920 886500 or email help@creditsafeuk.com, and a member of our team will be happy to help.

Kind regards,
The Creditsafe Team

Credit Safe Ltd - Professional.

In my line of business a Credit Report & Score is essential in our line of work - Commercial Debt Recovery. We couldn't survive without Credit Safe & the team who look after us, Sara Rodgers & her boss Stephanie Rees. These two ladies are clearly well trained & enthusiastic in their work. Top marks to both.

We have tried other companies who try to emulate Credit Safe, but they cant. Credit Safe are the most down to earth, yet exceptionally skilled in their work. They

Hi John,

We’re sorry for the disruption and the lack of a timely reply.

Our records show your account had run out of checks, and we’re required to complete due diligence before providing ad hoc checks, which delayed things and we apologise about this.
