    Just a single default nearly 3 years old (bank account) that just added to my Equifax file!! Grrr!!

    Got over 10 different accounts - 2 credit card accounts, one since 2003 and the other 2008 with no missed payments history.

    Oldest account is over 10 years.

    Basically file is perfect except for the single default. I am in the process of getting it removed, but looks like it will take a while.

    I am considering applying Flybe CC yes.

    Is that because in January is the busiest time of the year for CC applications? I will apply next month and see what they say. Cheers CashFlow

    Just went through Tesco CC application and have been approved for a CL of £4,000!! My computer froze when i was about to sign the CCA online! So have called helpline and Tesco said they will send the CCA form by post today instead.

    So is there anything i should be aware of (i.e second credit checks) before they send out the new card? There is no ID or proof of earnings requirements so i guess i have officially got the card and it is just a matter of paperwork to finalise.

    Quick question, I've just been going through my Aqua paperwork and I've noticed that like a dummy I've signed up for their payment insurance... It says I can write to them and cancel it but no idea what I need to put? Is there any templates or anything available? Or is there anything I need to make sure I include in the letter?
    This thread has me so pumped, I headbutted my dog and we both screamed.

    Congratulations mate

    When my GF was approved for £3500.00 last year, Tesco requested bank statements, GF sent them off and the card dropped through the door about 10 days later with the same limit.
