    maybe an Equifax search? :o

    Three don't search Equifax, they're exclusively Experian. They searched me for my Sim Zero, but they didn't search me for my Internet Texter 200 + E71 when I went in store.

    Maybe further down the list showing up as an Identification: Generic Check?

    After 2years and 4days with capital one and still on the opening £100 limit, I have closed my account with them.
    I have been twice refused an increase - so they can stick it.

    Although, I have a cunning plan.....
    I'm going to wait a few months and then apply for their progress card and see what happens.

    You can do it the day after your old account is closed; doesn't matter if the account isn't reflecting as closed on your credit file yet; applying while it shows as open will probably strengthen the application anyway :o

    Good luck & keep us posted!

    Evening all,

    the wife's Vanquis limit went from £250 to £750 over the weekend at some stage

    had it 8 months now, always leave a little balance on the card.

    pretty good increase =)

    Wayne.

    Seems the other poster thinks your Virgin card is sub prime... news to me!

    Spending time in the sub prime thread... umm... to be helpful?

    What a knob.

    Payday tomorrow, though it's going straight out again as I have to pay £1300 for my gap year holiday.
