    But that would mean another £50 or £60 in interest which I could use to pay off my Vanquis.

    Its all swings and roundabouts really! :eek:

    Hi all, been following your board for a few weeks, ever since I realised that I fall in the category of sub-prime! Recently been accepted by Barclaycard & Vanquis, turned down by pretty much everyone else, due to lack of credit history. I'm thinking of appealing these decisions, but I'm wondering if anyone here has ever successfully appealed a credit card decline? Thanks in advance :hello:
