    Ulster anyone?

    NO

    Part of RBS = Experian 1st! Then Equifax follow up! Plus it will say no if tesco did - same group mate. all RBS cards are dealt with at southend - same dept mate.

    never in doubt : I have got the tesco card in my wallet yes, bearing in mind the cards I have at the minute do you advise me to cancel the credit repair ones ?
    also which others you reccomend to apply for if any seen as I just got the tesco one will the mean others decline me ?
    thanks for the swift reply :)

    I'd just stay with what you have for the next few months or try one from your bank, thats your best bet.

    Tesco's credit card is not issued anymore by RBS. Also, the RBS group does not search credit reference agencies in any particular order. It varies between each part of the group and each product, some will search one, some will search both Experian and Equifax at the same time.

    And just hang onto the high interest rate credit repair ones too ?
    or better to get rid of those 2 and then wait 3 months to apply for others ?

    Some of Tesco's credit cards are issued by the RBS group. New Tesco credit cards are not they now have their own banking license.

    Also, the RBS group is not homogenous each bank has its own license and own data protection registration. This cause the uncoupling of the Southend-on-Sea centre into various departments.
