Why I Know What I'm Talking About!

Improving Your Credit Score and Managing Your Personal Finances; Why I Know What I'm Talking About!

You may be wondering what “qualifies” me, to be handing out these tips and hints about improving your #CreditScore, and managing your personal #Finances. 🧐

Well, in a nut-shell, without publishing my CV online (which would be very boring to read!): I'm an ACCA Qualified Accountant

I did all the exams through gritted teeth. 😬

As soon as I passed the last exam, I gave up formal accountancy. #NotForMe #NoThanks I love numbers; and saving interest on Credit Cards (etc), is purely mathematical. You pay off the highest rate first.

My husband and I set up our own Car Sales and Servicing business 5 years ago, and we now have a great team of 7 full-time staff. My role at Cator Family Car Sales is now just

occasional sales, plenty of tea-making, and more importantly; balancing and budgeting the money side of things. 🤓

I've had fight to have false information removed from family credit files.

I almost took a well-known mobile phone provider to court. In the end, they admitted liability, removed the false entry AND send me chocolates with flowers.

💪🏻#DontMessWithMe

I'm fully subscribed to paying packages for all three UK #CreditAgencies. I use live examples to demonstrate my points. I'm passionate about helping people, and to be able to use my #NerdSkills to do so, is a #WinWin for me 🤓

This is why I offer FREE tips and hints on my Social Media. My ideal scenario, is for you to only pay for Money Medic services once. I want to teach you how to #TakeBackControl of your own #Finances.

What I Don't Offer

I am not a Debt Counsellor / Debt Advisor. If you are in significant debt, struggling to make payments and need help, please contact the National Debt-line or another debt charity: https://www.gov.uk/national-debtline

I am not an IFA (Independent Financial Advisor). I can't and I won't recommend financial products to you. Being an IFA is a regulated industry, and they know their stuff. I can however, recommend some IFA's to you, if that's what you need.

So that's it, at least for now. I don't want to bore you to tears with a ridiculously long #BlogPost about numbers and money.... ! 😂
