    They have given me the Silver and My World but just said NO to the Flybe card :( Guess I'll have to wait a few months before getting my next Sygma :P

    'Tis a fun game this!

    Is that after speaking to an underwriter about the application??

    Is it worth me calling to speak to an underwriter before I get the "NO" letter? I applied last night.

    The underwriter I was put through to just said "we'll look at it and make a decision in a few days". Refused to do so there and then :(

    No bother, will just wait a few months and then shouldn't be referred :o

    I like to travel and thought later about the Flybe card, so the concensus is there should be no difference in applying/scoring in any of their cards? Apart from the Creation because you need a higher salary?
    Think I'll stop applying now till after Christmas:p

    Kilasuit - Do you think you may cancel your Vanquis card eventually?

    I think I have too much available credit as it's nearly as high as my income!

    Apart from the 15 months 0% with the creation card it is still the same as any other sygma card..

    Thanks for that information, I think in the new year I may apply for the Flybe card, do you think 6+ month's of account history may help?

    Don;t understand why they are asking 25k minimum salary when they are still giving out crap limits with it..
