In this episode, we’re breaking down everything you need to know about credit scores — what they are, why they matter, and how they can impact your financial journey. I’ll walk you through the basics, including the three credit reference agencies in the UK (Experian, Equifax, and TransUnion) and explain why your credit score might look different depending on where you check it.
We’ll also talk about practical ways to build and improve your credit, whether starting from scratch or trying to repair a less-than-perfect score. I’ll cover the difference between a soft and hard credit check, why it’s essential to know the difference, and how these checks affect your score. Plus, I’ll highlight some credit builder platforms that can help you take control of your credit and get on track toward achieving your financial goals.
Whether you’re new to credit or want to improve it, this episode will give you the tools to make smarter financial decisions. Let’s take the mystery out of credit and put you in control of your financial future.
