Poor credit credit cards 'could help people improve records'
People might want to consider the use of poor credit credit cards if they are looking at ways to enhance their existing credit scores, one source has suggested.

According to an article published by the Which? website, such products might be a potential option for those whose credit records are not particularly impressive due to a lack of previous borrowing.

Meanwhile, the source also pointed out that people's belief that there is one centralised credit list is just a myth.

Instead, their individual circumstances are taken into account by lenders when they make applications for credit, the writer of the piece went on to say.

Financial expert Alvin Hall recently noted that a number of consumers in the UK are changing the way they use items like credit cards as they attempt to get more control over their money.

Budgeting is another thing that some people are focusing on, he added.
