    When sending in an appeal letter, is a bank statement and my credit file enough support evidence or do I need to attach more like credit card statements?

    May disappear completely but when if it comes back (and it should) it could drop to £100 or go up slightly.
    They do increase VERY regularly though if you use it wisely, my Jd Williams started at £125 and is now £1100..similar increases with my other accounts too, subject to using them regularly :beer:

    you is the man to ask - eeeeeyyyyyyeeee (thats an eye) - Mr JD Williams himself LOL

    3 bank statements and a utility bill is all that is needed. More = better remember!

    CC statements show you have other credit, however a bank statement shows how you handle your money - that is key in any decision making process as you know young Miss Rosie ;-)
