Tesco = RBS Group = Equifax and experian.
Sainsburys = HBOS group = Experian.
Tesco is reportedly easier to get, but then again it depends on your credit profile. If you are working part time it is better to quote that you are working part time (not quote you are a student) and quote your income as your wage + student loan.
This is not lying but greatly increases your chances of being accepted.
..... What's your credit history like? A fellow member on here who is also a uni student just got accepted instantly for a Barclaycard Platinum... but they did have a shining credit report FWIW .......Cashback Earned ¦ Nectar Points £68 ¦ Natoinwide Select £62 ¦ Aqua Reward £100 ¦ Amex Platinum £48
