    Still no bunce on my Egg Money Mastercard. Got to expect a few more weeks/months of Santander inefficiency I guess. :(

    Uh oh! My original application was eventually declined because (a) they claimed that my application had some missing info and (b) the letter requesting the missing info never arrived and (c) the letter telling me that I as I had not responded to letter (b) was sent to the wrong address!

    Sounds like they are trying the same nonsense again. Their administration is appalling.

    At least they told you, by phone, that they were missing documentation - every single time (about 5 times) I phoned, they claimed they had not received my app, even after the date they eventually claimed to have written asking for the "missing info".

    nothing here yet, i cant be bothered chasing it, if i get it i get it if i dont i dont.

    didnt need it for anything, was just going to stooze it.
  • Ive just rang and chased again (app made 4/1 online) and was told to try applying again by some very helpful lady in a call centre far far away.

    Great service. Ive also got a balance to transfer so feel sickened that Im stuck in this situation.

    Applying again will put another search on your credit report.

    They havent even done the first search yet - just checked my Equifax record. :mad: The operator told me that she could put a request through to cancel the initial application - ah yes - Im sure I believe that that will work seeing as how there are 6 "chasers" already in to sort out the application in the first place and not one of them has proved fruiful. *mutter mutter*.

    I thought Santander only reported to Experian?

  • phooey - I seem to exist at Equifax but not with Experian without sending all my gubbins in. Think I might wait and ask Lloyds to take it on as I bank with them Theyve told me they wont need to do a credit search - as that true ?

    If they have pre-approved you.

    What have you got under "Offers" in your Lloyds online banking??
