    Gold ..same as yours.Pay for the summer holidays on 0% opening offer.

    How long did it take for the card to come?
    Still worry its not going to come , mind you the customer service lady was very nice , and as I said called me back after 5 days!

    My PIN came after 2 days and card 3. You'll get card by Weds next week I expect.... remember they aint like a UK bank, the statements etc are ermmm, weird to say the least! lol

    Smart one - well done. :beer:

    Anyway a message to all sub-primers - 3 years ago my file was messy.Not good.Sorted myself out , and yes paid most balances fully (some settlements).

    Then..got Cap one/Vanquis/Additions (always had next and Barclaycard)
    then..
    JJB card
    Flybe -

    and then closed the Vanquis/Barclaycard (who upset me)

    My file now goes back with greens 6 years . On the elec roll.

    and now moving up well - but should never take for granted.

    So there is hope!

    Yea I had that last two times, got accepted though with letter a week later declining me and both had £500 next to limit - must be the way they do it and the £500 is a default amount that they quote for lending....

    I prob get declined again mate, like 1st direct - got offered £6400 and then at last minute they said no - bummer! :confused:
