    Is the Coventry First really that hard to get? I have been looking at having it. What is the criteria for an application?

    Thanks

    I don't think anyone knows the criteria. But it says £1,000 funding per month.

    Another idea is NO late markers on credit files and electoral role for a number of years in same house.

    I can pay in more than £1,000 and I have no late marks on my files with any agency. I also have no searches. I have an active credit card, current account and mobile phone on file all up to date. A settled loan and two settled credit cards??? What do you think?

    haha - spill the beans?

    The albion account looks alright http://www.leedsbuildingsociety.co.uk/savings/albioncheque.html

    you need to maintain £2500 so maybe they only send you 10 cheques in a book? either way they are protecting themselves by demanding £2500 minimum operating balance.

    That cheque book looks the same as my Leeds Premier Current account cheque book although the cover of my book states "Premier Current account"

    The cheques also have "Premier Current account" written on them - there are 25 cheques in my cheque book :cool:
