    No response about the credit card yet. They'll email me within 24 hours apparently.

    Got my Pin today for my Capital One Progress card. :j

    I'm not expecting a high credit limit but at least its a start and i know the interest rate will drop to the high end of mainstream in about 18 months. But I will be paying it off in full each month so hopefully the high starting interest rate won't be bothering me to much.

    Now, i wonder when the card will arrive :cool:

    Apply. If I can get it with 58 searches and 12 months of credit history, most of you should be fine. :p

    Well done mate - so you went straight through with flying colours :T :T

    May as well do Sygma (flybe) now mate - nothing to lose and will be same day searches as well lol

    I passed with flying colours eh? What makes you say that when you had super acceptance yourself, only to have a decline few days later.

    Well we'll see after i signed the paperwork.

    I am so tempted to apply for Flybe card now. What time does the connection to CRA's end tonight -8pm? cos i don't want it to be referred!
