    Are you on the Electoral Roll Chris?

    Can they not upgrade it on your behaviour score?

    What other credit products do you have?

    You can't do direct upgrades with Co-op.
  • I rang them to open a seperate account to have all my direct debits come out of, was told i was eligable for a full account, applied whilst on the phone, only to be declined!

    Currently have 2 Mobile contracts and cap one credit card
