    Most say that their lending is "stingy" - or responsible if you follow the comments from Panorama's program about banks being irresponsible giving people such large limits.

    Personally I have always received decent limits from them but not the highest - though in the said panorama program it was RBS that they main focused on saying how they gave people too much credit

    Based on my experience with RBS and Mint, I would say credit limits on new cards are ...er, responsible.

    RBS: following the promotional introductory period, credit limits are raised frequently.

    Mint: approaching the end of the introductory offer, so too early to say.
