Business & Finance - 19 December 2006

My boyfriend is trying to get a car on finance. He's current car is on finance also but his mum put it in her name for him to get it. He has not faulted on one payment with his current car, has a credit card but always pays the amount off on time, sometimes paying the outstanding balance in one go, and has not got any problems with his bank so what's causing the bad credit???

I have an idea it's because he's not a homeowner but when i think about it what does that matter???

Can anyone explain to me what causes bad credit?!!??!

Many thanks in advance :)

I found a web. www.gapyearforgrownups.com.
There trips look amazing and I'd love to go to Africa to work with animals - has anyone done it alone and how did you get on? How safe did you feel? Did you 'find' yourself?

When I say job, I mean a position as an analyst and NOT just someone who answers phone calls or fixes the PC's.

Why don't landlords prefer not to deal with them?
Isn't that discriminatory?

Would you accept a new job (slightly senior level), but only at 16% higher than what you are getting now?

I know the rule of thumb is about 25%, but sometimes that may not be possible if the seniority level between the new and current job is not that far apart.
