Credit limit increase & updating report

Posts: 13 Forumite
Hi, each time I increase my credit limit, my score goes up. I still only spend less than 30% of balance & repay in full each month. However, it seems to take months for my credit reports to be updated with my new limit increase? Does anyone know how I could get my reports updated shortly after the increase? TIA

You can’t it’s down to when the lender sends your account conduct to the CRAs, it can take upto 6 weeks for it to show on your credit reports.pinkcocktail82 said:Hi, each time I increase my credit limit, my score goes up.

Also your score means diddly squat as no lender ever uses it. You should be focusing on whats on your report and that your account history is correct and that there are no errors on it.pinkcocktail82 said:Hi, each time I increase my credit limit, my score goes up.

You don’t - you wait.
And ignore the score going up or even down.0
