    proved the theory that credit changes between lenders..... I can't get a SDG but can get Freemans and JD Williams plus 2 gold cards but can't get barclaycard (not that I want one like) :confused::confused:

    Next, freemans group, studio group and SDG all tell me to sod off

    JD Williams gave me an account that started at £100 and is now £900. Also have an account with fashion world in the same group which started at £100 and has just risen to £200. They wont let me open any more accounts at present in that group though

    Do you actually order from all those catalogues Brian? I was considering one but I like to feel what im buying im old fashioned.
    I order from all, apart from Jacamo which has never been used. Must start before they close it. In total have probably spent about £2000 across them all and paid off.
    Does give quite a buzz when limits get increased and the inevitable green '0' s can only help, more so after 12 months of continual usage.
    That's my 'hope' anyway :beer:

    my littlewoods was opened recently
    a week ago, do i wait or can i apply straightaway for the other s in the sdg group
    I opened Littlewoods direct and Empire within hours of each other, pretty certain that Innocent Guy opened 2 on same night too so shouldn't be a problem, chances are that limits may differ greatly though. :D

    I heard littlewoods are quite good with limit increases! Iv just made my second payment by DD so hoping that 3rd or 4th statement comes with an increase! I never used the account the first month or two of having it!
