Noddle is a credit report service offered by the British company Callcredit. Launched in June 2011 on a trial basis, Noddle invited 10,000 people to test the service prior to its full launch later in 2011.

The service enables clients to view their full credit report free for life, without the need to pay for similar services from rivals Equifax and Experian. Noddle charges for extra services such as Noddle Improve, which informs consumers how to improve their credit scores, and Noddle Web Watch, which scans websites looking for fraudulent uses of users' information and warns users about anything that appears awry.

If clients see any discrepancies in their reports, they can dispute the problems with the pertinent reference agency.
