    I'm hoping £500! But £400 would be ok!

    1.4k on JDW!?!? Who the hell could spend that much!? And if you did then you'd find if you looked around you'd have got it for £600 :p. Who's got the biggest limit on JDW!? What does it go up to!!!:eek:

    I never use my account so assume I won't get an increase, if I do I'll prob bring it back down anyway while I'm a student (because banks seem to hate us, and having high limits with £0 balances won't help!), but would be nice to get an increase for something!!

    That's the limit I have! I can't quite believe how they raise limits!! However, when people get to £1400 the limits seems to stop! :confused:

    Well you've come a long way now. You have an account with almost every catalogue company in UK.

    When you order your credit report, do they have to unload it from the van using a fork lift truck? I'd imagine it would be so big because of the amount of 0's being added to it every month. :rotfl:

    :rotfl::rotfl:

    You should look at Brian's Credit report, he has sooo many catalogue accounts!!

    :rotfl:Wow! I just looked at mine, because they'd have my credit agreement by now, but it's still £125 :rotfl:That's nothing compared to £1,400! Only think I'd use anywhere near (or over) £125 on electrical items, but when comparing you can get a hell of a lot better for the same/less, so unless something was in a sale I wouldn't go for it
