    My wshing machine has decided to die this evening, was wondering if anybody had ever tried to apply for credit with currys and if they had been successful or should I just stick to the launderette for the next few months.

    Try buy it direct, they use V12 Finance who check CallCredit.
    Since when has the world of computer software design been about what people want? This is a simple question of evolution. The day is quickly coming when every knee will bow down to a silicon fist, and you will all beg your binary gods for mercy.

  • Anyone know what Capital One are like for limit increases? I had my first one after being with them for four months as promised but was curious if they'll increase it again say after eight months maybe...

    Interesting as when I applied for a laptop they searched Experian and the lender was HFC?

    Am I crazy? My mother has gone to Spain for two weeks, so it's just me (18) and my brother (20). My brother has just told me he's having 'friends' over on Saturday. I hate his friends, I never get any sleep, they always have music loud and it turns into a full blown party.

    I'm thinking of booking into a travelodge for Saturday night. It's £50... I don't want to stay with friends or family either, so I might just book it. I'm working 3pm till 10pm on Saturday and the travelodge is right next to work, so I can walk out of work at 10pm, straight into a nice comfy room.

    Waste of money much?...

    A Level results tomorrow.
