    keep trying - it took me almost an hour but got there in the end. It kept throwing me back to first page after I'd spent ages typing in all the info! Better get the £100 after all that!

    Just got to step 7 of 8 then it went back to step one. So not sure how important step 8 was and if its gone through or not, suspect it hasnt. Seems to want to know a lot, it double chechs things its picked up on credit file (even one credit card had forgotten about in wifes name).
    Am a bit reluctant to start again as it will most likely do another credit search i would guess.
    Nope.... Still cant think of owt interesting to put here.

    I applied online on the 11/01 and received an e-mail to say they would get back to me within 4 days to confirm/reject my application................Still waiting.

    But they did a search on my credit history on the 16th so maybe I'll hear soon.

    You can ring them on 08457 555555 if you're desperate to find out if you've been accepted or not.

    EDIT: or freephone 0500 007234
  • Guys, just been looking at this.

    It seems that if you go through a step and accidentally miss out filling in one of the fields, it will take you back to the page, and display an error message. However, it seems that this message isn't very easy to spot, which may have caused some of this confusion.

    However, it's also likely that their server is struggling to cope with the demand, so keep trying folks, make sure you get your £100!
