    Not sure. It annoys me that you have to have 2 searches with EQ

    Well see if it pre-authorises anything first. If it doesn't then it doesn't matter.

    I've been trying to get one. I have only recently been upgraded to a Abbey preferred overdraft rate account, so I guess 2 more months.

    I do have other bank accounts. Barclays no GC but it's Visa debit, Shatwest effing Solo and Yorkshire Bank it's a full account with a Maestro card, but my local branch has now moved to ....... Ellesmere port 65 miles away!! :eek: . I would shut it but I can't be bothered to travel all that way up there and it also gives me green 0's as well.

    If you log into barclays online banking you can see pre approved offers on the left. Click on there and it will tell you what you are eligable for. Also if you go into barclays they will tell you your "Limits"

    You're having a laugh aren't you, they have never pre authorised anything for me.
