    Yeah i wonder what's so special about this account...or am i missing something

    Do we get free holiday to Cyprus as a thank you.......yeah right..lol

    Well it can give some peeps here a decent debit card that they could not get from UK banks. It is worth a try!

    Anyway about the tesco credit application i did yesterday, I called again this evening to double check and basically it is guaranteed as long i return the terms and conditions with my signature.

    So you think guys i have got the credit card in the bag so to speak?? Or will they take further checks?

    Anyone got Tesco Clubcard CC experiences? NID?

  • how owuld one go about changing names on credit products?

    if i contact every single one will i also need to tell the credit reference agencies?

    or would contactin each individual company be enough?

    The credit reference agencies don't alter information, they merely record information provided to them by other companies...

    Hence you merely need to advise the companies that you hold accounts with. Some may ask for a change of name deed / marriage / divorce certificate before proceeding.

    Don't you have to pay a monthly maintenance fee for that Cyprus account?

    Can't remember exactly where it was but i was looking at there accounts before and aborted an application when i saw they charge a maintenance fee with some accounts. Notice they also ask for a passport number too? How do you get around that if you have no passport i wonder?
