    Who do you bank with. If you want to have a credit card with Lloyds then bank with lloyds.

    Credit card companies are getting a little more picky with who they deal with. Thats everyone not just thoses with bad credit or good credit or average credit, everyone.

    You just need to keep making the payments ontime everytime.

    Could it be BECAUSE all my accounts are being managed meticulously now that I'm being declined? Do they want me to be a higher risk to make them more money??

    I would have not thought that this was the case at all.

    The above cards? You mean the ones I've already applied for?

    No, the Crap1 Starter Card, Vanquis or Aqua

    The Barclaycard Initial can be hard to get if you've no cards already, it's the top of the pile in sub-prime CCs
