    Nah I wont. I doub't they'll give in but it's worth a try!

    Atleast the temptation of spending on it will be eliminated, allowing me to focus on my other cards and increasing my savings account balance.


    Plus, it is a waste of "available credit" if I can't spend on it. If it's off my file, then the other lenders will be able to give me better limit increases because I won't be over-committed, if that makes sense LOL.

    Sounds like a plan....:D

    Hope too be able too do something similar myself in the not too distant future.

    Is it worth me applying for a Flybe card as i am subprime, are they any good?

    I currenty have a vanquis card £500 limit @ 34% and a Capital one Classic £1700 limit @ 34%

    Any advice would be helpful.

    Go for it. Flybe are quite good at accepting subprimers. No harm in trying.

    Just put in an application for a Capital One classic. Lets see what happens. "If" I get this one, it stays in the safe and wont be used. Just want the little green '0's... they are becoming a small obsession!


    Oh, and as well as Vanquis raising my credit limit, Simply Be have done so too! Not used them though. (them as in the extra limits!)

    No I would interpret it as that they (Sygma Bank) will contact you in 7-10 days;)
