I will call customer service and ask what account you have, if you have the progress card I would complain as the min credit limit is £500I bet your one of those boring,geeky,glasses waering student types, well youre certainly NOT a normal student judging by the amount of time you spend on here with your Diazapam buddies

Strange.... Yea it may be better to call than email, I'll have a look. I don't want them to cancel the card and reissue it or anything though...
Indeed, I've got a stack of books on the side to get through too....now kindly clear off.....

See i always thought that you're better off keeping an account open to show you can run it never knew that settle accounts look good too.
The key is to have enough active accounts to prove you can manage your credit but to not have too many open at once.Bank Accounts - Barlcays Premier[/B] - £1000 o/d, HSBC - £200 o/d- First Direct - £500
