Score went up about 80 points in six months. I missed one payment early on and it dropped a bit, but the app sent me reminders and it bounced back. Not magic, but it works if you stick to it.

Honestly didn't expect support to actually reply to my chat at 9pm. The lady walked me through setting up direct debit step by step. First time I've felt like a bank actually wants to help me, not catch me out.

Card came in 3 days. The eligibility check didn't hit my score which is what I was worried about. Just a soft check at first. Limit started at £100 — small, but exactly what I needed.

I use the store card mostly for Aldi vouchers. The savings are actually applied at checkout which I wasn't sure about at first. Slow build but I can see the difference on my Experian.

I tried two other credit-builders before this and neither did anything for my score. Bits is the first that actually reported and the change showed up on my file. Wish I'd found it sooner.

No — checking eligibility is a soft search that's only visible to you. A hard search happens only if you formally accept an offer.

Not repaying on time will result in an adverse report to the credit reference agencies which may negatively impact your credit score. Savings in the Bits Store apply to the maximum plan; lower plans have lower discounts.
