Good, bad, or neutral, unlike normal markets this system has not always existed. In fact, it seems to be an extremely recent development.

removal of "trusted system" claim

Regarding the 5:40, 31 July 2021 edit of credit score, I have removed the statement about credit/identity scoring being an instance of a trusted system, not on the basis that the statement is false, but because I I think it is likely to distract the reader. While somebody learning about trusted systems may find this to be an interesting observation, for the typical person who is curious to know more about credit scoring systems, this at best would just be ignored, but it could prove to be a disruptive distraction for people who try to make sense of it.

references for UK credit scores

This source What is a good or average credit score? from Barclaycard shows the UK credit score "full ranges" (a well as the "fair", "good" and "excellent" ranges) for credit scores from Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion (formerly Callcredit).

The U.K. requires each credit bureau to provide consumers with access to a "statutory credit report":

  • Equifax Statutory Credit Report: www.equifax.co.uk/Products/credit/statutory-report.html (blocked link)
  • Experian Statutory Credit Report]
  • TransUnion Statutory Credit Report: www.transunionstatreport.co.uk/ (blocked link)

Here's a short list of other pertinent pages from the various CRAs:

  • Equifax "understanding credit score ranges": www.equifax.co.uk/resources/loans-and-credit/understanding-credit-score-ranges.html


I suggest signing your edits below (along with an "edit summary") rather than in the text of this section:

Semi-protected edit request on 30 September 2021

I suggest changing the following two sections about credit scores in Norway:

In Norway, credit scoring services are provided by four credit scoring agencies: Bisnode (Dun & Bradstreet), Experian, Evry and Creditsafe.

Credit scores range between 1 and 100, sometimes between 1 and 1000. [citation: https://lanfordeg.no/lan/lan-uten-kredittsjekk/]
