Cash Chats #125 – Credit reports


This week I’m looking at a vital part of your finances – the information that banks, lenders and other companies use to work out whether they want to give you a product or money.

Known as a credit report, it holds details of all your accounts, payment history and more. And linked to this is your credit score. They’re different things but both very important.

Here’s how they work, when they’re used and how you can access them for free.

Don’t forget to join the Cash Chats community on Facebook.
