    I am waiting for the paper work to arrive for the Sygma Silver card, any ideas on how long this normally takes?
    Since when has the world of computer software design been about what people want? This is a simple question of evolution. The day is quickly coming when every knee will bow down to a silicon fist, and you will all beg your binary gods for mercy.

    24.9% £1,000

    Based on the strength of only having about 16 months worth of credit card history on my EQ file, having applied for five others in the last six months, having a Barclaycard close to it's limit, and having only just taken out said barclaycard - all negatives.

    If I'd waited six months I'm 99% sure I'd have got it at 16.9%

    Same, but I think mine will be the "DAYS" (Donate as you Spend) card, that way if one of my friends rolls their eyes at my having taken out another card I can say "but it's etical! I only want to help the children!"

    I'll give it six+ months at least as I want to be in the "A" APR band next time :beer:

    I like the look of the card, it has the mastercard and hologram next to one another.... I may also apply at the same time as you? :beer:

    keep each going see who can hold out longest - after all, longer we wait before clicking apply the lower the APR is likely to be :o
