Still nothing. Rubbish service, i give up.

A bit harsh? You applied on the Fri 17th and wrote this on Thurs 23rd?

But glad you're sorted now. I also found that they were helpful on the phone once it had been processed - including telling me the limit.

The process is long winded from first application to getting the details through to do online banking. You have to get the card before you can register, and then they had to send something through the post.

I had to leave the UK before getting my online stuff or seeing a statement. I rang them from the far east periodically to check transactions and minimum payments etc. I found their call centre staff excellent and their phone system more efficient than that of most providers. Staff seemed to be local too.

Yep - plenty of people here have had bad experiences here. But so far I rate them highly.

PS Limit £8100. Compares with £7500 NW and £4000 Post Office, the other foreign friendly cards.
