Hi
i have never had any credit the only things that go out of my bank account on a monthly basis are orange & virgin media
I went to take out an ipad yesterday on finance and i was declined by comet and 4 other companys
I have never had problems with taking out contracts etc so i thought whats going on here so i went down to my bank and they said everything is fine this side.
So i did an experian report which gave me all my financial information and credit score, apparntly it says outstanding debt £96 i have no clue what this is and how long its been there as i have not taken out anything in a while.
Back in march i was made redundant and struggled to pay my iphone contract as i had more important bills to pay with my job seekers allowance.
but i cancelled my direct debit and managed to pay my bills before i was actually cut off.
experian will not tell me who this debt is from and my credit is in the very poor category for some reason
how can i find out theres got to be a mistake the only problems i had was with the bank santander putting me into an un arranged overdraft which i had to keep paying up would this have anything to do with it
Thanks

Hi, your credit report should show the information against each bank / lender etc - it should therefore show which company the amount is against, the date of any "missing payments" etc.Grocery Challenge £211/£455 (01/01-31/03)
2016 Sell: £125/£250
£1,000 Emergency Fund Challenge #78 £3.96 / £1,000Vet Fund: £410.93 / £1,000

think the iphone none payment will effect youDon't put your trust into an Experian score - it is not a number any bank will ever use & it is generally a waste of money to purchase it. They are also selling you insurance you dont need.0
