Credit Rating......

I need some advice.

I want to know if the following will help my credit rating increase.

I recently managed to secure my car insurance on monthly payments, which means i have a credit agreement with my insurers. I also pay for my mobile on a monthly contract.
Its been 3 years since i was discharged from my bankruptcy, so technically i have another 3 years or so before the bankruptcy comes off my credit file.
Therefore what other ways could i increase my credit rating.

Thanks

    Try a for a Vanquis CC, but to be honest, whilst your BR is on your file your credit rating means zilch.
