in Credit cards
Hello,
I have been in the UK for two years. My wife is French and I am from latin-America. My wife was offered a credit card after a few months of opening the account. Two years later it is still impossible for me to get a credit card. I checked my credit report a few times and as today the score is 799. Everything is in good order except the fact I am not on the electoral roll.
Since I am not from the European Union I am not allowed to vote or register to the electoral roll.
I hope someone would be able to help and provide some indications of what can I do to apply for a credit card.
Thank you for your help!
Cheers
Josuemo
