    Yeah

    Thank you for applying for your Mastercard Gold Credit Card

    In the next few days you will receive a printed copy of your Credit Card agreement pack in the post. This will contain instructions on what to do next.

    do you earn £20,000+ mate? I got told that they decline people (weird) who earn less than £25k even though website says £20k..... I dunno how true it is though......

    t@ssers really, I got a 3 grand limit then cut in half within a month - they credit search you monthly by the way - when you have an account with them.....
    :o 2010 - year of the troll :o

    It was a silver looking one mate - can't remember (had swirls on it, bonus I think)?

    Hi Troll how are you?

    Which letter shall I send the one on the Vanquis page which tells them I am sending ID etc or the one on this thread which seems not as aggressive. :confused:

    Nah mate - Tesco is RBS which means they search Equifax.

    Experian main search and Equifax follow up....... look here for proof of this:

    So HSBC could search Equifax as well. Just Experian for me.

    Mate you never applied to BOI did you? ROTFLMFAO (rolling on the floor laughing my fekkin ars off) - you nuggat should have went to Tesco! BOI will not touch you mate!

    You've picked one of the hardest peaple - I only went for them cos I had a gold card and thought why not, you don't have a mainstream credit card yet do you?

    BTW the response above is standard - you then get a contract like the image i'll post later for you. Then when you send the contract back it goes to manual review - they all do, and get credit checked a second time and then usually they decline you¬

    Bummer, did you apply for std or gold card mate? Best of luck.....

    I was advised to apply for it by Sutton & Cif :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

    Oh well
