Here's why your credit score matters - and how to improve your rating
by Derin Clark
Your credit score is one of the most important factors lenders look at when deciding to accept or reject your application, along with how much they are willing to lend you and at what interest rates.
Whether you are looking to borrow hundreds of thousands of pounds through a mortgage or just want a £500 credit card limit, if you have a very poor credit score you’re likely to be rejected. However, if your score is excellent, you’ll not only normally be accepted but also offered the best possible interest rates.
