Flybe Credit Card... Whats it about?

Hi MSE,

Lovely wet night here in manchester:rotfl:

I'm trying to fgure out about the flybe mastercard... Is it a card for new to credit people and people who have difficulty getting credit?

I noticed it is by creation financial services who I know do high APR store cards but I'm wondering is it worth me applying in a few months.

I've not got a cc at present (currently appealing capital one decision) and I haven't had a credit card before or a overdraft... The only thing I do have is a Barclays Premier A/c which i've had for about a week!!!

Please tell me of your experiences with not just flybe cc but with creation or LasER as I have heard they are also called


thankssssss:)

    If you have never had a credit card before then Flybe is probably not the best place to start.

    Your best bet is to start with either Capital One Classic, Vanquis, Aqua or Barclaycard Initial.

    I heard it is easy to be accepted for the Flybe card, if you have a clean credit history. My credit history is excellent and I was accepted. So far, I have had a good experience with Flybe.

    Try applying for the Vanquis or Capital One card. You are more likely to get accepted. The interest rates are high but we all had to start at the bottom.
