A good credit score can change lives, especially for important long-term goals like mortgages, car loans, or getting the best possible repayment plan on bigger purchases. Despite this, few alternatives for building credit exist. We’re here to change that.

Hi Jins,
Thanks for taking the time to leave this review.
We've had a look with our Customer Support team and can see that you contacted at just after 8am on December 18th to ask why your credit score hadn't changed that month.
The team responded just after 9:30am explaining that BuildMyCreditScore should be seen as a 12 month journey to help you improve your Credit Score. It's not a quick fix and there are factors outside of BuildMyCreditScore that can cause your score to go up or down on a month to month basis. This includes any other bills, credit cards, debts, or loans etc you may have through other services.
You raised 2 further support requests later that same morning asking the same question and received a response within 15 minutes.
You then asked for a phone conversation and our Customer Support team responded to ask when would be a good time for a call. You did not respond to this message which is why you were not called.
Overall, we can see that your score has increased by 47 points since you signed up in October, which is great to see. Keep up the good work!
Best wishes,
BuildMyCreditScore Team
MY Credit Score hasn't improved!
MY Credit Score hasn't improved, despite me keeping up with payments and not affecting my score in any other way. I feel that my money is wasted.

Hi Sean,
Thanks for taking the time to leave this review, and we're sorry to hear that you feel your money has been wasted.
We've had a look and can see that, overall, your score has increased by 5 points since signing up to BuildMyCreditScore. Whilst this may not be a huge increase, it is still an increase.
Keep in mind that BuildMyCreditScore is not a quick fix and there are factors outside of BuildMyCreditScore that can cause your score to go up or down on a month to month basis. This includes any other bills, credit cards, debts, or loans etc you may have through other services.
Best wishes,

To be honest
To be honest, it's all a bit confusing & when you ask any questions. You never get an answer. My score dropped over 100 points one month & I wanted to know why & either they just don't know or they won't tell you. All I got from the conversation was they want you to pay more money for nothing. As all they keep saying instead of answering is please think of this as a 12 month journey. I'm coming up to the 6 months that I paid for & will not be renewing it. If your thinking of using this company don't. Find another way to improve your score.

Hi Stefan,
Thanks for taking the time to leave this review, and we're sorry to hear that you're unhappy with the product.
First of all, despite the previous 100 point drop you mentioned, your score has still increased by 114 since you signed up in July which is great to see!
To clarify, as we are not a Credit Referencing Agency, we cannot say for sure why your score dropped because we don't have access to all the data required. Your score is calculated by these agencies based on reports they receive from all products that report to them.
This is why our Customer Support team was unable to give you the exact reasons for your score dropping in October.
Best wishes,
BuildMyCreditScore Team

Bad card, terrible customer service
It had taken far too many emails to get the customer service to understand the most simple of tasks of unfreezing my card. I’m extremely unhappy with the card and the service it’s so much more hard work than other cards I’ve used to build credit in the past. You should most definitely be able to load more than £20 on your card, it’s your own money so £20 makes no sense. I have £4000 in my Chase account that I use as my main card and you also don’t accept Chase so I have to open a bank account up to put a measley £20 in
The card I can see from other reviews is making people upset over the small £20 limit which again is outrageous and silly as it’s not borrowed money it’s OUR money so why have £20 ? You just can’t cope with this limit it’s such hard work to keep changing from bank account to bank account with a measley €20 especially makes it harder as Chase ain’t an option but I use Chase due to the cashback they provide just like anyone else
You’re losing customers over this all
The card most definitely needs an evaluation and some changes to it
I would like this sent to the Top manager in charge to look at making changes
Start reading your reviews and everyone is saying the same as me
Edit to the reply I got off these people
This is the same reply we all get as customers, it’s not good enough. We ain’t looking for Credit, this card isn’t Credit it’s our own money so why they can’t make it £50 plus I have no idea. To mess about on tiny purchases and remember to top it up is hard work
It really does need a £50 plus limit it’s our own money afterall not credit

Hi Carl,
Your card was frozen because you cancelled we were unable to collect your subscription for the month, which is in line with our Terms and Conditions. It was unfrozen once the money was collected.
The limits for BuildMyCreditScore are deliberately low, as the product is designed for small purchases like coffee, snacks and other incidentals, as well as regular payments like Netflix and Spotify. We will then collect the payment from your linked account via Direct Debit a couple of days later.
Making these small purchases using BuildMyCreditScore allows us to report your spend to Credit Reference Agencies and help improve your credit score, without the risk of needing to use a high interest credit card.
We make sure to advertise the card accordingly on our website and FAQs, as we are not trying to offer large credit limits to customers.
Best wishes,
BuildMyCreditScore Team
Effective and Reliable

If in doubt
If in doubt, give it a go what have you got to lose?
You can't lose points off your score signing up for the card before they have even taken the first payment you will of gained 15 points on your credit rating. I didn't believe the claims either now I just wish I would of done it weeks ago...
Thank you you have made it possible for me to get a credit card now ❤️ this card

Hi Kerry,
Thanks for taking the time to leave this review.
We're sorry to hear that you feel misled about the product. Please note that you are not able to complete your sign up to BuildMyCreditScore without explicitly choosing a subscription plan and the frequency of the billing. We can see that you selected our £42 semi-annual payment plan when signing up.
We've looked into this further and can see that you were interacting with our specialist Payments Team regarding closing your account and an outstanding payment that we were unable to collect funds for because you cancelled your Direct Debit connection with us.
These issues can sometimes take time to resolve due to the nature of the Direct Debit method, but we can see that the team responded to you promptly and your account was closed once we had collected the outstanding funds and the pro rata refund for the remainder of your subscription had been processed.
Best wishes,
BuildMyCreditScore Team
