Pretty good Sygma take your available balance down instantly. Aqua website is a shambles to login to (expiring sessions and other rubbish) and I don't think it does.... JJB does though
Just got a few computer things and my available has dropped! 
I take it you've got to run the cards pretty close to the limit to get an increase? Running Aqua & Sygma close to the limits is going to be pretty impossible!0 -

The Platinum one replaced the Gold one, so gold is inactive and Platinum is current, the Green one is for my second account that I use to limit my spending when I go to the pub etc
In the greater scheme of things I still think LTSB are an alright bank just lie a lot about their credit scoring.Cashback Earned ¦ Nectar Points £68 ¦ Natoinwide Select £62 ¦ Aqua Reward £100 ¦ Amex Platinum £48

Got my vanquis statement and paid it immediately in full through HSBC internet banking, and now I've just got a text saying I need to pay at least £5 by the 31/08 - does this mean I need to pay £5 before this months statement?
It's got me rather confused and I don't want to get hit with late payment charge!
This is what my eVanquis looks like:
