    Is Silver a new Sygma card? I applied for it last week. I think it's the only Sygma card that has 0% on balance transfers and purchases.

    Are my chances of being accepted improved because I already have a card from Sygma?

    I don't think it's new as such, but think it's well hidden! Can you post the link on here please mate?

    I think it will only help that you're an existing customer - it must do, but i'd think you'd have to have at least 6mth history as it is classed as a mainstream card isn't it?

    Keep us posted on your progress.....

    I don't think scumbag is an appropriate word to use for people that get in debt Claire......

    Why do you feel 6 years is enough? Wasn't it about then you were a 'scumbag' as you put it but now are not? Don't you maybe think that due to both people and circumstances change and 3yrs is plenty of time....... ;)

    Nah i just dont feel that 3 years is a sufficient lesson!!
    If it was only 3 years, than how often would people be able to do all that!
    and it was 2004 that i messed up

    Good point. Most people would be able to screw up and start again about 15 times over their working life.

    I think 6 years is very tough on the vulnerable. It forces those who have got in to debt possibly through ignorance - it isn't always bad money management - into sub-prime loans, mortgages and credit cards which makes climbing out of debt a hell of a lot harder. Shortening to 3 years would accelarate the process of clearing debt.
