Using Jacamo catalogue to rev up your credit rating...

After several years abroad I am trying to build up my UK credit history.
I got approved for a Jacamo catalogue. Credit limit £150.
How do I best utilise this to boost my credit history a little? Is it best to not order anything? Or to order low value items and then pay the balance off in full each month? Or to just make minimum payments each month and keep the balance low?
Any tips gratefully received.

I did this two years ago. J D Williams with a £150 limit and bought tiny things and paid them off. My limit is now £1300.3 Children - 2004 :heart2: 2014 :heart2: 2017 :heart2:

So you paid the balance each month in full? Is that the best way to go?0
