    Not the easiest of accounts to apply for online, but i believe the bank of cyprus BLUE CREDIT MASTERCARD is that account the useful guy was on about.

    There is a branch in liverpool city centre will investigate, but I am only opening if they report to uk credit reference agencies. I mean I am only doing it so that it appears I have a 10k large credit limit!, alot of mainstream wont approve you without existing large limits could be a way for the low credit scorers there.

    I maybe poor credit score at the moment, but cash rich!.

    Also any deposit over 8k has to be investigated for money laundering does it not?

    :huh: How can you not recognise that all the posts you had were helpful. Do you not grasp the logic behind the fact that Bank of Cyprus is NOT part of the UK therefore my original HELPFUL post stands - there is no such thing in the UK.

    For reference, they won't report that kind of card to CRA's - only current accounts:

    Ref: http://www.bankofcyprus.co.uk/Files/a_PersonalBankingConditionsOct07.pdf

    section 7.2
    When we agree an overdraft with you we will tell you the agreed limit and the interest rate
    and fees payable and we will confirm these details in writing. You irrevocably authorise us to
    make searches at credit reference agencies or make other enquiries whenever you request
    any credit facilities, or if we wish to consider increasing or renewing your agreed limit or offer
    you other lending products. We may make a series of searches at credit reference agencies
    during the life time of the facility, including when we are considering renewing any overdraft
    facility. You acknowledge that credit reference agencies record searches and that information
    they record may be used by other lenders assessing credit applications from you and
    members of your household.

    None, they are pre-paid meaning it is not credit. Means they do not credit score you or report to CRA's cos in essence its your own money and you can't go overdrawn....

    You were told in other thread that CashPlus is the only thing similar..... That is the only option.

    sorry no matter how many ways you word the question, the answer stays the same.

    And the point of this thread is what exactly?
    A final thought to any MSE Moderators reading, can we please start a dedicated thread for general argie bargie and profanities, maybe call it "Vent your spleen" or something along those lines.;)
    Since when has the world of computer software design been about what people want? This is a simple question of evolution. The day is quickly coming when every knee will bow down to a silicon fist, and you will all beg your binary gods for mercy.
