    lol I just want it to improve credit file thats all, probably end up with really small limit anyways.

    Been with capital one since I was 18 so 8 years and I have never had an increase £200 limit only!!! got higher than that with Vanquis as subprime

    8 years and no increase? That's terrible.

    Capital One have been known to be rather tight fisted when it comes to their limits, but if it helped build your credit file then I guess it's better than nothing.

    Because he could.

    Also as a favour to the rest of us to let us know what the application process was like and who they search before we decided to give it a shot, I presume.

    I'm surprised Niddy hasn't jumped in to defend himself here... :o
