in Credit cards
In the next few weeks I'll be applying for a new credit card.
I have checked my credit report from CreditExpert/Experian and noticed that the information on my current credit card is not up to date. Let's say my balance is £500 - Experian says it's £1,000.
I understand why this happens but I don't know what to write in the application - the actual balance or the one in the credit report? If I write my actual balance, will they check my credit report and think I'm lying?
This is very confusing, so I'd appreciate any tips!

Write the actual balance, they know it can change daily on an actively used card.0
