Just a thought but , will monzo ever add a credit building option for those that messed up at 18 ?
I have a decent amount coming in each month bills are paid on time ect but sometimes youre bound to become stuck!
I think it would make a great feature just a small amount to prove you’re trust worthy, have it reported to the cras build it up and then be able to borrow more?
Monzo don’t offer this service yet but you might find some use for Loqbox
The basic principle is that they perform 0 credit checks on you when you sign up (this is to help people boost their score after all ), you then select a monthly amount to deposit (I believe it’s anywhere from £20-£300 per month for 12 months).
At the end of the 12 months (assuming you’ve not missed any payments) you receive the money back in full - it gets deposited into a new ISA free of charge (or an existing bank account for a £30 charge ).
