I have been using 2 credit cards since 2020 and these are my 1st credit cards. I recently checked my credit score and was shock to see it in the bottom tiers. Anyone knows why? I pay all bills on time. Does adjustment of credit limit affect the credit score? What about credit instalments (e.g 3 months)? Also, is it advisable to put a limit on your credit card e.g. $3,000 and spend close to the limit? Does this affect the credit score as well?

Did you pay the full outstanding credit card bill monthly, or just the minimum required?

Try asking for a higher credit limit. Part of the credit score is determined by credit utilisation (ie how much of your limit you're using) - so a higher credit limit will bring down utilisation (which shows you are not overextending yourself and spending beyond your means).
