    Hey Mr Nid what are my chances of opening a decent current account with my 2 defaults? Not something I am likely to get?

    Not yet mate, have you heard back from them yet? I thought they'd sorted your files out mate or are these the 2 that are due to drop off at the end of the year?

    Yeah We sorted my problems with Cahoot and they removed the note and my 2 defaults are those that are to drop off in May.

    I suppose I can endure RBS untill then.

    Is it gold, what apr and limit mate?

    I'm gold; 16.9% and £1000 until next month when it goes back to the starting limit of £3800 - hopefully!

    Yeah its a wickered colour!

    Weird , as it seems the APR is standard (16.9) with three months interest free , just looking to book some flights now for our holiday..very nice.

    would'nt have applied if you had not said , so cheers m8!

    You have maxed them out already bigbum! Oh my, what you been buying girly ;p

    Ah things are pretty good here. I havent maxed out my Cap1 or Vanquis as of yet but hopefully I have a flybe card on the way so I might give that a go if the Apr is semi decent ;p

    I wouldnt mind a nice holiday :)
  • you're less likely to get more credit if you're cardsa maxed out for a long time isnt it???

    What's your Flybe limit?

    Maxed out my cards because i hadn't worked for a while so was using them plus spending my meagre savings :o.

    Anyhoo, i'm working again, so it'll be ok :T.

    Where would you like to holiday? :D
