  • Cosmic, if you don't mind me asking, what was your starting limit and what was it increased to? Also, after what sort of time-scale did you get the limit increase?

    Hi Linux,

    I started on £2000 and they put it up to £2500. It was on my 4/5 month that they increased it. hadn't asked previously about an increase, they just did it automatically x

    No late pays on my equifax but a couple on experian. Did have 2 defaults on equifax though 5 years old.

    Were they settled?

    OH just applied and has not missed any payments in over three years but has one outstanding default from over three years ago. D-E-C-L-I-N-E :(

    Which was a bit disappointing given he'd just been approved online for Capital One Classic AND Halifax Reward Current Account (Halifax even gave him the a/c number and sort code at the end of the application, took a £1 from his old Lloyds VISA debit card, and gave immediate online access to the account!).

    There was only one search on Equifax which was for Capital One, Halifax searched Experian, so that shouldn'tve contributed to Sygma's decision, should it?

    Ah well, two instant-approvals in one month is praise enough for his recent good behaviour, I suppose :)

  • is it worth applying for this card if my credit history is not the best? (defaults about 5 years ago, a few cc's now but min.payments made on time each month)
