There are many reasons to improve you credit score, in today's world a good credit score can help you a lot and a bad credit score can cost you a lot of money, your money.The first thing I would do is get myself a copy of my credit report.

Credit File, your credit file is simply a list of what you have borrowed in the past and how well you have paid it back. It will have everything from Bank accounts to store cards and more. Judgements such as bankruptcy will also be included. When you apply for credit such as credit card or a store card or any kind of finance the company you are applying for credit with will send your details to a credit agency who will match your details to the information they have stored on file. So therefore it is of the most importance for you to make sure you have a copy of your credit report and it is up to date with no errors in it.

Bad Credit, if you have got a bad credit rating which equals a low credit score it will throw up some problems for you. Here are a couple of problems you will come across if you have a bad credit rating.

1. Higher Rates Of Interest.

People with low credit scores are categorised as high risk by lenders and have to pay higher rates of interest to compensate. In the short terms this may not seem too bad but long term this can cost you a large amount of your hard earned money.For example there are many credit cards currently on the market that come with a 0% balance transfer rate that lasts for 16 months and when this initial period ends the rate goes to 16.9%.But if you have poor credit, the cards available to you have no balance transfers and an APR of 30% to 40%.These cards should not be overlooked as they can help rebuild your credit file if used in the correct manner.

2. Getting a Lease.

Consumers with low credit scores may find it difficult to rent a property, landlords too are feeling the effects of our current financial situation.They need to be sure that their rent will be paid on time so they will thoroughly vet any prospective tenants because landlords have their mortgages to pay.
