It could be absolutely anything. Maybe he has been overdrawn or had a returned item.
They base alot of decisions on their own internal scoring systems, don't they.0 -

Are you going to apply for an account with the Halifax?
It's better to ring them, as they will give you a instant decision, sometimes online they don't and you have to wait for a decision.0 -

I am going to do it when my SDG show. I will prob go into a branch and do it.
Only downside with Halifax is Cif or NID had a letter saying that they do not like / accept more than 15 searches a year on your CF. I have more than that :rolleyes:Bank Accounts - Barlcays Premier[/B] - £1000 o/d, HSBC - £200 o/d- First Direct - £500
