    I've just been very bad and applied for FlyBe. Got the 'We'll contact you in 7 days'. Does anyone know if I ring them now, they'll be able to tell if I was accepted/declined?

    Now 13 searches in 12 months and 10 in the last 3 months, with Experian. I heard Flybe only search equifax?

    Correct they only search equifax;)

    I just looked at my credit report.... Vanquis just reported a green 0, so I have two now. :P

    Aqua only reported one, even though I'm nearly on my third statement.

    Phoned them. It's gone to the underwriters and they'll contact me within a few days. At least it wasn't a flat out DECLINED, I guess.
