    No I think you're wrong, unless the person cannot provide the required documents, then there should not be a problem

    No I think you are wrong, barclaycard do decline at times even when documents are requested. For example and undeclared address on a bankstatment.
    Don't put your trust into an Experian score - it is not a number any bank will ever use & it is generally a waste of money to purchase it. They are also selling you insurance you dont need.

    I have a quick question, and it's kinda silly so I didn't wanna make a thread about it. The credit limit and cash limit are different, I assume this means you can spend the full credit limit, but only withdraw the cash limit?

    On my online banking keep showing pre-approved platinum barclaycard offer because of my banking record with them but can't see any button where I could apply for this offer online.

    I have barclay initial card for less then a 3 month but banking with then from 2 years.

    Best go into branch, since you can't see any button to apply. You will know a decision on the day. All paperwork is done on the day too.
