    This year I have had credit rises and my credit score has gone higher on whst I can see and what the lenders see as I have two views so I could see but it is very confusing  and @woodbine I apologise  as you say there is different information  hard to see which is correct 
    What do you mean? Credit rises? With who?

    Yup, that’s called an internal credit review. Nothing to do with the made up numbers the CRAs use.

    @mikehughescq, well put, @woodiepicker12 also check your bills at home and try to reduce those if you can.

    I'm no debt expert but I agree you can sort it yourself without paying for a debt management company 

    Of you are struggling to pay debts ring your creditors and explain  they will work with you to arrange an affordable repayment plan 

    This can include reduced payments,  interest not being charged   nonpayment for set period 

    They would rather you arrange something with them than ignore the situation 

    I have paid off all my debt this way and moe debt free 

    Yes it does affect your credit history but I don't intend to take on debt again
