    1. Does any cashback site give incentive to apply Clarity card?

    2. I want to know whether the additional card holder's card has the same card number the the main card holder's.

    3. How does it compare to santander's Zero card?
    Spend smart, and save more.

    Has anyone applied for this card in the last few days? Wondering if anyone has received the outcome of the referral letter. Applied last Tuesday about 8pm online and got the "we will contact you within 10 days" screen. Wish I had just rung up now to apply for it!!
    Regards, Robin.

    Card received, Activated.

    They didn't send me the additional users card.

    Apparantly if you applied on line there was a problem with adding the Additional users on, so if you did the same, chances are you may not get the AU card and will have to add that person on when you activate the card.

    Also the £5 credit is paid on to you credit card statement and not your current account statement which someone mentioned previously :rolleyes:

    Hi all, my fiance and I have both applied for the halifax clarity card. He has been offered the better 12.9% rate whilst I've been offered the rate of 17.9%.

    We are going to the US next month where we will be using the card - I understand the APR makes no difference on purchases whilst we're away as long as we pay off in full. However, if I need to withdraw cash whilst in the US will I pay more interest than my fiance cos my rate is higher? Need help thanks.

    It will be cheaper for him to take out cash.

    If I were you, and I were planning on clearing both cards in full when you get back, it'd be to use your card for the purchases and his for withdrawals :o

    Thanks, I thought that was the case but got confused when I saw the £1 figure when reading about the withdrawals.
