    going to try them with £1000 and see what they say anyway. will send off letter 2mo and let you guys know as am sure i wont get a reply till i return on 29th april

    Also another thing they knocked off £2k on my other loan with them so after this one paid am tempted to do the same with a cheeky offer

    Well you never know unless you ask.

    I just got accepted for the FlyBe card but it didn't mention my credit limit -- is this normal? I thought that along with the instant decision it also gave you your limit?

    Got another phone call from A&L. The only account they can offer me is the Basic account. Screw that.

    that sucks!! its about time banks were made to offer the same products to all regardless, after all if you have the money going in they have no right to make it difficult for you to get it out which is exectly what is happening due to them not giving out a debit card ect they are a law to themselfs and are allowed to do what they want with full govt backing!! should have let them all go under. im sure the alternaitive would have been much more in our favour!! rant over!! lol

    chin up cif!!
