| How come your credit sorer does not take into account of the electoral register ? |

Thanks for the input, you will find that we have now adjusted the scorer to reflect a persons status on the electoral roll.
Please do keep the comments coming  |

It depends, since you do need long standing cards with good credit histories.
A good guide is not to have more than your annual gross salary as open credit, so if you have more than this unused credit limits then close them down. |

Nice calculator, though I note a couple of things.
It does not take into account how much existing credit you have relative to your oustanding debt and income ?
Maybe you could look at adding that into it ? |

Ive found your free calculator really useful
And can confirm that it is pretty accurate, cos I tested it against Esperians score and got a similar one. though I had to pay for that one  |

| Great tool but would it possible to take into account whether the CCJ had been paid? I was accepted for a bank account only after I got the court to issue a certificate saying that the debt had been paid. |
