Hi all

 

Just a few months ago I credit checked myself in Experian and had a credit score that was pretty close to the highest possible. Great I thought.

 

This month Equifax score me at 324 (poor) with Experian scoring me 892 (good)

 

I have credit and all serviced well, Not lots of credit accounts. All historical accounts paid up to date or paid off early so settled.

 

On electoral role for last 12 months in newly bough house and 5 years on previous address.

 

No issues with other people connected with at other properties.

 

Positive factors in my score = 7, negative factor = 1 (took out a loan few month ago)

 

I have looked through my accounts and am baffled as to why my score can change so quickly and what the cause would be.

 

Do these scores just go up and down and I shouldn't worry too much?

 

Thanks

Any questions shoot... 

Thanks for the link. Was actually reading this last week. Lot of work gone into that.

 

Even after reading it I'm still not clear on my low record. I pay everything on time and have no other issues so will just keep an eye on it.

 

Thanks again

Ignore the scores... They are just how the CRA sees you and have no impact on credit. Try using a soft search comparison engine... 

Do it monthly and see how you stack up for some of the best CCs... Dont actually apply - But itll give you a little idea of how you appear to Lenders :)

 

We could do with some help from you.
