I got one at 18 from Nationwide! Went into branch to tell them I had lost my card and ended up with a credit card with a limit of £2000 on it! An I was still in full time education!
Worst thing to ever happen to me!!

Is that ex-student simply because your spelling is so bad that the lecturers advised you not to continue in education?0 -
meow.....put claws away. I would say capital one is your best bet0

would you say that if i was blind, in a wheelchair, or have other special needs?
or is it because im dyslexic you think you can just take the !!!!.0 -
Search for "The credit ladder" a thread created by Never-In-Doubt. This will help you select some products that are scored less harshly than other prime lenders. Vanquis & Capital one will prob be the best bet.
