The three largest CRAs that lenders use to independently work out your credit score are Experian, Equifax and TransUnion. They all have different score ranges, marking out of 999, 700 and 710 respectively. This table shows how they rate each score:
| Experian | Equifax | TransUnion |
Very Poor | 0-560 | 0-279 | 0-550 |
Poor | 561-720 | 280-379 | 551-565 |
Fair | 721-880 | 380-419 | 566-603 |
Good | 881-960 | 420-465 | 604-627 |
Excellent | 961-999 | 466-700 | 638-710 |
If you scored 600 with Experian, then you could find it hard to get a loan. It won’t be impossible, but if you do manage to find a personal loan, it is likely to be a ‘poor credit’ loan, with extremely high interest rates. If you scored 600 with Equifax or TransUnion, then you will be able to get a personal loan without much issue.
