    I called them and the message said that you have to wait 5 days before you can follow up on your application. It has only been 3 working days so I just have to wait but I think that it is not looking very hopeful.

    I understand what SOS means in this context but does it actually stand for anything and how did it come about? Intrigued!!

    Also just out of interest, awaiting for my Cap 1 credit card agreement to come through in the post. I was told it should be here no later than
    today but can't get see if it's arrived in the post until lunch :)

    However, how long does the Card etc take after this has been returned and what not? Nice one :)
