    Oh yes you've been successful - well done. Probs start at low £100 or £200 limit but its a start.

    well done :T

    hate to rain on the parade but Crap One are notorious for sending out PIN's then declining you.... :mad:

    Yea I heard this too but then thought they sorted that 'little problem' out? Or is that not the case anymore lol? I'd still say it's 90% done though - next few days will determine exact answer.... :D
