Hi,
I am a little confused - I have just looked at my credit reports for Experian, Equifax and Noddle.
Equifax and Noddle both list me as poor - and with 2 defaults waiting to drop off beginning of 2016 I can understand this.
Experian list me as excellent with a near perfect 966/999 - both defaults also showing on this report.
I am confused - anybody got an thoughts on this?
Thanks

Hi
The credit reference agencies seem to have their own criteria for creating a score for you. I’m not sure why there is such a large discrepancy but the score they give you isn’t important anyway. If you apply for credit the score isn’t visible to creditors and they will interpret the information on your file in their own way.

Dont worry about credit scores, you get graded by a companies 'criteria' for a product.
It is confusing, it is intentionally made this way to make money out of vulnerable people.
