    Thanks! So £500 is the minimum? That's a promising start :D

    Lots of people seem to start with £800 on this card. Seems to be the norm but then someone else said they got £4750! If your credit is decent you'll get a good deal and good limit.....

    No nasties, but I am a student so my income is fairly low. I have an Egg Card (£500 limit), Vanquis (£500 limit), Aqua (£350), Capital One (£200) and Amazon (£1300). I'm hoping to cancel the Vanquis, Aqua and Capital One. I've run them for just over a year now, so they've helped build up my credit file. :)

    LOL, I think you'll be fine with Sygma having loads of cards already! Limit may be lower as you have a lot of cards with available credit... i'd get rid of the higher apr cards....

    Well I have paid two defaults off. I want them removed, Noah off this forum is helping me because he did the same with one from O2 I believe.

    I just wanted some more advise from you because I know you have had problems with defaults.
