    Thanks a lot , lisyloo . I've had egg money for 4 months , so what is the best time to apply for egg card ? Will egg do another credit check or just basic on their internal credit scoring system ?

    Full check. Best time to apply would have been before you applied for Egg Money card ;) Apart from that, won't make much difference - 6 months after "last" search of your credit report is probably next best.

    Sorry I don't know how their internal credit scroing works.
    However I'd be suprised if they relied on 3 or 4 payments to decide you are a good risk.
