    I was accepted as I did not get an instant decision when I applied online.

    A shocking APR of 21.9% though and only 2.5k credit limit. I will certainly make sure I settle in full each month!

    Think I will be closing some more of my dormant cards down too as this is a shocking interest rate.

    Has anyone received their card yet, this seems to be taking a long time to process compared to some of the other applications in the past...

    could it be the physical cards that are holding it up?

    i cant tell if they are actually an X shape kinda like the Mint cards with a curve or if they just have an X design printed on a standard card.

    I didn't get automatically accepted online but got the letter in today with the acceptance. £3800 credit limit (£8.5k less than my One card) and an interest rate of 17.9% :eek: !

    They can shove the credit agreement where the sun don't shine seeing as I never got the 12.9% rate.

    Was looking forward to the free fivers too along with my three rewards account fivers!
