  • Well I got the phone call this morning, so despite waiting for ages they did get round to me! Dunno what my limit is or anything but expecting 250 like most of those I have read about here
    Now to get back on the road to creditworthiness...
    I understand I have to spend wisely on the card and pay the balance off in full each month, that goes without saying, however I did wonder how many green Os does it take before you can actually apply for another card (and I don't mean a 0% one, that would be silly)? Or should I just wait the six months?

    thanks

    Mm I was thinking of waiting 6 months before applying for a cap 1.
  • Is it true that the granite card has a max credit limit of £500 or am I reading the website wrong?

    Give it 12 months and apply for a proper card.

    Always use the Freefone no.
    Had a standard card now for over a year and have just been upgraded to a Gold card. Credit limit started at £500 and is now £1500.

    Same here. My limit went up just before Christmas and the new card turned up today. It's not the most beautiful thing in the world though. ;)
  • I originally applied at the end of November - got the phone call on 22nd December but no sign of any card yet - any idea how long they take to actually arrive?!

    Thanks
