    it was less it was within a day

    i've told her to wait to see what they decide.

    hopefully they will see it as someone not understanding how it works

    Unfortunately, it's mostly computerized (then underwriter), therefore the computer doesn't see it as someone who doesn't understand how it works, rather someone who is desperate for credit.

    Saying that, I applied for both CapitalOne, Vanquis and Aqua all within a week. Got declined for CapitalOne, but accepted for Vanquis and Aqua at £250/35%.

    she will be disappointed but she's done without a credit card for these many years.
    hopefully cap one will look kindly on her.

    Littlewoods sent me a credit agreement with my first statement. I still haven't sent it back yet. Hope they don't limit my account or freeze it until I send it back as I got it a few weeks ago and keep forgetting to pop it in the letterbox.

    I wouldn't worry about it as they sent me a CCA back in October, I still haven't sent mine back and I'm still having credit limit increases.
