    If you read exactly what it says on the screen shot you have posted you will note that it says 'your EXPERIAN credit score'. There's a big clue there, its a number made up by experian which NO ONE ELSE has access to or uses. Experian do not lend money or run a credit card scheme so it really is a completely pointless thing to pay good money for.

    The score means nothing.

    Also stop paying them the £15 a month. That money would be better used on other things, all that £15 is buying you is a number that is randomly generated.

    Tell you what. I'll write a random number generator program for your computer with a range from 1 to whatever you like. I'll let you use it as much as you like for just £10 a month.

    Sound good to you? Of course not.
    Just like Experians service.

    If you read post #5 you will see they get this number provided free to them via Barclaycard. So I don't think they will be interested in your random number generator :rotfl:.
