Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

PEOPLE refused credit or simply curious about their rating will find some of the answers in a new leaflet from the credit reference agency CCN.

Entitled Helping You to Understand Your Credit File, the leaflet attempts to clear up some of the mystery surrounding credit agencies and gives advice about what to do when credit is refused.

It outlines the sources used for credit information and how to appeal if you wish to challenge the details of your credit reference file.
