How does it compare with the CRA's records and who is behind it ? If not one of the CRA's are Clearscore running credit checks through all three agencies (to which you must have agreed in the small print, maybe) and simply collating them ?
My opinions are merely that .. opinions based on experience. Always seek professional advice.

IVA started March 2011, Completed March 2016 and certificate issued 11 days after final payment. It was not always easy but then some of the best decisions aren't.
Any marketing emails are just blocked by me - not had anything so far.

It is all consent based - at the end of the day if this is "free" they need to make their money somehow.
Plan english, large print and easy to read T&c's is a good start plus they identify ICO registration number etc.
I get the russian brides, ppi and people wanting to read my fortune.
