    Thing is I have already been declined for a Plus account and informed them off how much I get I don't want to contradict that.

    I've just checked Experian and they searched me through Experian as well.

    Wait a few months. It's very possible your income has gone up within a month or two.

    Are you going to be using the Plus features, so that the fee is worthwhile, or are you getting it as a 'Milestone' on getting a product? :p

    Sutton could you not just ask them for a bog standard Current Account. any particular reason you want to get with HSBC? You're with Natwest currently, right?

    I have various Current accounts. Barclays, Abbey and Natwest.

    There seems to be good feedback from them.

    Was chatting on phone and emailing with a nice-seeming guy. We were talking about meeting for dinner over the coming weeks. I mentioned that i enjoy curry. He then replied that curry and spicy foods makes his hemorrhoids even worse than they are. I now just can't get that disgusting visual out of my mind and I can no longer really see him as dating material. It seems weird to talk about hemorrhoids with a woman you are hoping to go on a date with, no?

    Yes, throw in the towel now. :p

    I see it as a bad sign. If I'd taken things further he'd be taking dumps in front of me in no time at all and probably farting and eating his bogies in front of me all the time as well
    Me thinks you have an over active imagaination

    What do you think of Barc, abbey etc so far? Have they given you decent facilities?

    Abbey are naff. Bloody Electron. Barclays I have Visa Debit. I don't mind Barclays actually, i just want a Cheque Guarantee card.
