    I'm going to try Vanquis in February again, it's 6 months since I last applied. I wait until then to try Capital One again.

    Hopefully they will accept you then....

    I don't know whether to move my salary etc to Lloyds TSB. I already have an vantage current account that I don't use. It seems pointless paying £13 a month for HSBC Plus when I could be making money (interest on the vantage).

    Hmm...
