in Credit cards
Hi all,
Just thought you would like to know that Equifax(just got my report) are now reporting not just your credit limit in a monthly report but also what balance you have in that particular month. I would suspect so companies get a fuller picture of how your limits have changed and what balance you carry up to it. It must be due to start as the format is in place but there are currebtly no fiqures, see example below taken from my report:
Credit Card HistoryMonth12345678
Credit Limit£ 5,000£ 5,000£ 5,000£ 5,000£ 5,000£ 5,000£ 5,000£ 5,000
Statement Balance
Payment Amount
Month910111213141516
Credit Limit£ 5,000£ 5,000£ 5,000£ 5,000£ 5,000
Statement Balance
Payment Amount
Month1718192021222324
Credit Limit
Statement
Balance
Payment Amount
EDIT: The table in the preview looked ok but some how wont show, tried to get it to look a bit better?
Cheers
John
