    Certainly worth shopping around for a card that matches your circumstances, especially your income. Have you checked out Capital One?

    The Experian Credit Score assesses your credit history, but not things like income that lenders will typically look at too. We do make that clear on the website.

    Is it clearer than the suscription charges?
    Don'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.
