Aquacard

Hello
I have recently applied for and been granted one of these cards.(aquacard)
Has anyone else had dealings with them. I know they are high in interest etc but I am using it to build my poor credit rating back up. How long did it take for the card to arrive and what sorts of limits did other people get?
Would be interested to hear other peoples views. There do seem to be some old threads on this subjects but nothng recent!
Many Thanks

    Surely someone has this card an can offer an opinion????

    There is no reason to write something like that! Have you ever thought that maybe there is nobody who has visited this site since August 29 who has an Aquacard and can answer your question?
  • hi my stepdad got one with limit of 250 and one month later was upped to 550
  • These cards are a great idea if you have a bad credit rating. Don't rely on it though as your main means of money - use the opportunity to show you can pay off debts. Even if it's only £10 a month you spend on it, then pay it off, it shows you can pay the debts.
