    Stop looking at credit scores. They mean nothing. No one cares about your imaginary score.

    They are a handy prompt that you should look at why your credit file is poor.

    The raw data in your credit file shows you if there is adverse data, the number does not.


  • It's very unfair on the OP, I understand why they feel aggrieved, I too got caught out a couple of years ago by UU who put a late payment marker on me, I say got caught out because only a few years ago UU didn't even report to CRA,s and I used to only pay when they were on their way round to cut me off lol, I don't know why I used to do that and I definitely cant do it these days I just feel we're all being ripped off with water charges so that was my militant stand, shame it backfired on me!
