    Well to make you feel better then, I only got £500 on the plain Egg card thanks to some naivety about what would incur a credit search.

    Had mine for a while now, and it's a cracking card (sorry :rolleyes:).

    Was originally given a low limit, but I phoned up and said I was cancelling my Egg Visa Credit card, so they transferred it's limit over to the Egg Money card. Only ever got close to the limit once when I was doing my bathroom and put everything on it all in the same month.

    Never had a problem, apart from B&Q not being able to do refunds on it, which is actually a bonus, since they normally give you the cash instead ;)

    And it's invaluable for stoozing - I wouldn't be without it.
  • We got a £2K limit it suits us as we use it for all debit card purchases and pay off in full each month. Weve had the card for 3 months now and accrued £30 cash back so far, so things are going well.

    Just a little update, its been about a week now and I've not received my card but all my log-in stuff works online. Should I worry yet?

    Would not worry just yet, their customer service is rubbish and take eons for the simplist things...

    Oki, fair enough. I'm not signing up for the service!

    I've had my card for about four months with no trouble. £3600 limit, never been anywhere near it. Pay it off each month but 7.9% apr if I couldn't. I wonder if I'll get a letter changing it to 12.9?
