    No , naughties - all greens and correct.The only thing against me I think is , only my basic goes in the bank - my bonus is paid in cash - my bank had rejected me for a card down to 'affordability' - even though they never asked for a wage slip.So if I say my salary is X , on my bank statement it says Y.Even though I would then just pay the cash in.
    Oh Ok, do you have many searches are anything.

    Well done on the approval anyway it is a min 3grand CL

    searches wise none on Equifax - apart from BOI - Experian around 12. Well I'm not getting too excited yet - they may knock me back yet.I havent seen anyone else on here get accepted or recieve the paperwork , so cant see if its a deffo yes.

    Also are the Bank of Ireland part of Natwest or not?
