    I would ring Santander to double check they haven't "lost" your application. They have been known to do this.

    Thanks do you think they will still allow the bt to go through since its for a card that my oh has in his name?

    Yeah they can't tell who the destination card belongs to anyway.

    I've done this a few times in the past with my ex's old cards... sure it landed me in the !!!!!! and I've been sub prime for the last few years as a result of never getting a penny back but it's doable! :o
