    No, I'm going to try Vanquis again in the end of September the beginning of October. It's 6 months between applications then.

    I will try Aqua around the same time too.

    How is yours going?

    I've made 2 payments now. I haven't ordered anything from them since I made my first order. My limit stands at £150. I made a Direct Debit payment yesterday, my new statement is produced next Tuesday. I would like it to go back to £250.

    I'm waiting for the new Directory.
