I have a feeling they may cancel your new app matey as you already have one of their products.

Think your right innocent,as i then was saying to bluerover when i tried they said i had to completely cancel my account,then apply for another card and obviously get credit scored for it..
So well done to bluerover if he do get the world mastercard,but honestly think you have do close your existing card down b4 you can apply for another cap 1 card..

Good evening all. Is everyone looking forward to the England match tomorrow? Thankfully the school is closing (where I work) at 2.30pm and putting the football on the big screen in the main-hall. Being paid for watching football is good. They said no about drinking a few tins though. Apparently a bunch of school staff drinking alcohol in the school hall isn't a great idea. Ah well... :P

I'm off to Africa in 2 weeks. Going for 23 days! Fun fun fun!

Can't wait for England game, should be great, just a shame there is nobody at uni this time! Never the same watching it alone, and don't fancy going to pub on my own! Need to "work" during it anyway haha.

Today my fears about 2 matches at once were proved right At 3pm it really didn't work (still made a profit though but nothing to write home about) - realised I can't bet on the 2nd match (that I'm not streaming), far too nervy as you can't see what's going on, so a lot more risky and takes all the attention away from the one I am watching so I missed good chances on that! So from now on I'm going to pick the one I want to watch and work mostly from that, only going to the other one at half time. That worked really well for half the 7 games, just gotta go and do all the figures in my database now... longggggg!!

3pm tomorrow... England game or USA game, hmmmm!! :rotfl: I'd probably get more from USA game but wouldn't be able to concentrate!

Rang Sygma up this morning to ask for an increase in my limit. After being on hold for a little bit, while she was conducting a credit search. She come back and said "that credit search was ok, I'll increase your limit by the maximum £300" I'm well pleased!!

I am keeping everything crossed that the nice people from Vanquis will offer me an increase after this statement which is due around the 1st July. It will be the 4th one so bursting to know if they will. Would I have to ring and ask or do they just do it???????

Gillian, i recently got an increase. They text me to tell me my limit had been increased. Its the 1st increase i have had in sometime but i hadnt used the card or hold a balance on it for months, then i spent on it and got the increase to £2500

Hiya did not cancel the Cap One according to the woman on the phone she said look on the website and see what offer I think fits me and apply then they would accept or not and before new card/account sent out then I would have to cancel the old one.
On the website it said I had been accepted, so will wait and see what happens if all falls flat I will cancel Capital one 34% anyhow.

sorry so are you saying you are cap 1 existing customer and you applied for card number 2 with cap 1 before closing account 1 down? I was told over the phone i had to close my existing account before applying for a better card
