Better to pay down revolving card or stooze?

Hi all
I think my credit balance is what's holding my credit score back
Is it more beneficial to use spare cash to:
- keep balance on revolving card permanently lower?
- pay down the stoozing card a little?
Thank you:beer:

Revolving card currently cleared in full by DD but utilisation a little highThis is a system account and does not represent a real person. To contact the Forum Team email forumteam@moneysavingexpert.com0

The score is irrelevant. If you're benefiting from stoozing, continue as you are.
It may only become an issue if you're seeking further credit.0 -
I'd like to stooze more eventually, but failed a credit check a few months ago so I'm trying to reassure them a little now in the hopes of borrowing more later. I'm aware that my credit file is still quite slim
