    I was only trying to help you moody little pri*k,listen to you the APR could be 1000%,as I've never paid a penny in interest and i never will,well don't think your going to get a chance mate because your to much of a high risk college boy.
    Yet again Star-fire with the unhelpful comments, just like the first one was unhelpful, and we all know it.

    High risk? Ah well no worries, Halifax and Natpest will have to deal with me instead then :D After Natwest bizarrely asked me about taking their credit card again last week.... Oh and the interest on that is what, 18.9%? :p

    Flybe gave me £1000 credit limit, but not sure what tier I'm on.

    I'm going to balance transfer my capital one progress (have £800 on it) as it's 9 months 0% on balance transfer.

    I'm no longer sub-prime.

    Flybe - £1000
    CapitalOne Progress - £800
    NatWest Student CC - £350

    Aqua has now been canceled.

    I thought it was every four months? Is it automatic or do you have to request it?

    Ohh ok, I was waiting for an automatic increase. I'll request it online and see what happens, I'm sure it was a while ago since I got my last increase so I should be due another.

    Ok I'll call them. I'll look for older statements to see when my last increase was, just to make sure I'm not requesting it too early.
