Quick question I applied for the highest apr card they do the other day noticed a equifax alert for their search and then this evening I recieved a phonecall asking about our redirection.

I confirmed it as we rent out my old flat(i can't afford two mortgages!) She said she was sending paperwork out? I have a five year old default does this mean I have an account? Or will they search again? Also how the devil do the post office inform them that i have a redirection alert anyway? surely that's up to me?

  • the re-direction shows on your credit file so any lender can see it, i've just moved and have a search on my file

    I hope you don't mind not having internet banking as I am pretty sure they don't have it with this card...
