It's important to note that a cash withdrawal marker doesn't only show up if physical cash is withdrawn. This insight also includes any cash 'advance' fees or markers. If you've done any of the following, it might have caused this marker to appear:
-
Making a lender/mortgage payment from a credit card
-
Paying a bill with a credit card
-
Buying travel money
-
Buying gift vouchers
-
Withdrawing actual cash at an ATM
How this affects your score
Lenders might see this as unfavourable and poor money management, because they don’t know where the money is going, and because cash advances can indicate urgent need.
