Good afternoon Everyone.
I'm watching a fantastic football match on Setanta it's currently Villa 2 v Everton 3.
Innocent I have 3 SDG accounts. Littlewoods, Littlewoods Extra, and Empire Stores. I wouldn't say I have a good credit file.
Coincidently Littlewoods have increased my limit this month to £850.0 -
I am trying to cut down on my searches now so I am not going to apply for any more credit for at least 3 months.0
