I got the same letter and phoned them. They can confirm the limit by phone. They said they can't increase the initial limit or reduce the APR.

I think if you look at the writing under the "do not mark below this" line, in the footer of the agreement to sign and return, the first few numbers are the limit

In that case I think I've got a £6500 limit.

I received an agreement form to sign and return and was curious to know what my limit is. Couldn't find it anywhere on the forms. Then saw your post ten minutes after I had sealed the envelope.:(

Has anyone recived their card yet? How long after sending back the signed agreement did you get the card?

I'm hoping to use this to increase my the cash back I get every month. Especially as you only need to spend £300 (after any refunds) to qualify for the £5. if you only spend £300 this is equivalent of 1.67% cashback, £500 1% and £700 7.14% etc etc. I plan to spend approx £300-£350 per month on the card (spending slightly over the £300 incase of any refunds) and then out any additional spending on my Capital one World Master card or my Egg Money card and getting full 1% on additional spending. One of which will become my online only purchases card as barclaycard will be closed due to cashback decreasing in August. Does this sound like a good plan?

Yes, I think so. I plan on doing the same (and have all the other cc cards you mention!).

The only slight enhancement is that the OH has also been approved (in her own right) and so I'm planning on doing two lots of £300 between us on Clarity (per month) and the remainder on Egg Money.

I got a welcome letter saying my card is on it's way.

The letter also confirms you can't choose the colour, shame as the white card looked really sexy!

Thanks, How long did it take for you to get the Welcome letter. I had also choosen the white Card online (mainly so it looked different to my other cards), shame I won't be getting that one. Do you Know what it will look like?
