    Also I'm not going to be applying for anything else even if I get declined so make not much difference!

    I have a Natwest current account with no overdraft facility ditto Co-op and HSBC all with Visa debit card. I have adverse credit as I have a default registered in 2007 by EGG which Im paying at £250 per month and ends next year. Nothing else on my credit file. No loans, a mortgage of 50% LTV. A Cap 1 card which I have had for 7 years never missed a payment but do only make minimum monthly direct debit. That has a credit limit of £900 and has never been increased (I did do a charges and PPI claim on it 4 years ago) I was accepted for a Vanquis card 3 weeks ago with a limit of £500. Is it worth me applying for a Sygma card and if so which 1? I dont want the credit its just that Im going on a holiday to the US in Dec and a couple of cards would be useful for that so intend to pay any purchases in full at the end of the stat paymen period. I earn 50k per year. I am on the electoral roll for current property (been here for over 4 years) and all previous addresses.
    Its weird as my OH has 5 defaults but can still get overdraft etc
    Any advice would be welcome

    You could try for a Sygma card. I'd personally apply for the silver card. Reason being, is I'm guessing it has a slightly lower pass mark on the credit score than the Creation card (as the Creation card has 15 months 0% and Silver has 6 months).

    They may decline you until the default is satisfied however.

    I presume you have the capital one classic at 34.9%? If this is so, you may want to consider closing the account and then applying for the Capital One Progress - this starts at 34.9% but decreases as long as you keep to the terms of the account, you can check it out on their website.

    Good luck! :o
