    tell them to shove their cash account up their @rse, as far as I'm concerned its paid.

    Don't blame you. I wanted a Next account, but I'm fighting them to remove a default, when I paid the account off.

    Hi i applied for a jd williams catalogue last nite and it said that i had a £125 limit to start. Do they credit check you when you apply online or do they accept most people then do their checks after you have applied?
    They seem to do the credit check after you apply as you are initially given a limit and then it is reviewed manually the following day.

    Typical Next, by what other people say about them Kiora.

    What are you going to do about it?
    They reduced my limit by more than half this month to £1500. They didn't even search Equifax. They are all very odd. But they sell such nice stuff! That's how they sucker you in.

    Its a bit odd then that, if they credit check at the start, the limit is reviewed the following day. Maybe all files are reviewed manually the next day to see if you can get an account.
