    The 'same morning' was the second time I had called, the first time I got 7-10 days. Pfft. Let me know when yours comes through though!!

    I'm amazing too and everyone has knocked me back for a card.
    I should take my amazingness to a company who would appreciate me! If only I could find them!

    Ugh. I went overdrawn by £18 on my HSBC account but they haven't put on any charges. Quickly cleared so I hope it won't affect anything.

    Right someone tell me this when i can start applying again.
    Starting a fresh,equifax i have 5 searches SYGAMA FLYBE ,SYGMA MYWORLD,JLP,ULSTER,BOI..All done in march
    Experian 6 searches MBNA,TESCO,VIRGIN,COOP,EGG,SAINSBURYS.
    All done in feb&march.
    Both credit reports have no adverse credit as never defaulted,never late payments,no ccj,all greens,
    At the moment i have 2 credit cards FLYBE £1000 OWE 0 CAP1 £1500 OWE £62
    Would love to have a really nice card like AMEX b4 christmas,my wages can be quite good at times,when the work is there,,
    Since joining this forum most of the time i have talked !!!!!!.
    Lived at current address for 2 years which is rented..\
    Seriously what chances have i got to get nice prime cards by christmas.
    I know i have sygma but to be honest they aint in the same league as AMEX TO NAME A FEW..
    Thanks

    Why on earth do you want to apply for AMEX? They are less accepted here in UK. It is all about bloody status!! I advise you to stop applying until around November of this year; or even better until some searches on your credit files drop off. The best cards will more than often turn you down based on the number of searches you got on ur credit file at present.

    Your internal BS with HSBC will be affected no doubt about it. I think first time offence will not be charged (so as long it is corrected quickly) with new accounts so next time you won't be as lucky. How long were you overdrawn for?
