    Thanks for that

    Did they do instant decisions or did you have to wait?

    I didn't get an instant decision but still got a card. Had a few hiccups with them doing too many searches on my file but they rectified that really quickly - in fact they removed them all from my file - seem friendly on the phone and all. If you have applied, give them a call and they will tell you what the status of the application is x

    I don't have any searches on my Experian file but they do record account conduct with Experian.
