Marbles credit building card.. how best to use?

cscz

just after some advice in regards to making the most of a new credit card to slowly help repair my credit file after a dmp..

so basically i have taken out a marbles card and my understanding is that i should use it reguarly and clear the full statement balance each month. in regards to this how much should i be spending on the card? i have googled and found 30% seems to come up quite often does this sound about right? also with there being such a gap between statement (6th of the month) and direct debit (25th of the month) if my statement balance totals 30% of my limit should i not be using the card between this period, say approching 50% of limit or is it just the statement balance that really counts?

any point in the right direction would be great thanks

The usage ratio can also be influenced by your limit - there's no hard and fast rule.

Just stay under your limit by a comfortable margin and clear in full each month.

What's the point in clearing each month? Save on interest? or does it have an affect on how the lender sees it...

Both.

Don't be the mug who pays interest if you don't need to.
