Hi,
My experience so far, initially applied over the phone on the 17th for a Progress card & was told that I can only apply after the 21st, because of a special promotion they're running, whereby I can apply even as a Classic card holder. My application was accepted and I've so far received T&C's which I've signed & sent back. Still waiting for Pin & card to come through. I've had my Classic for two years, always paid in full. Hope this Info helps. Will update.0 -

I'm now sure about this - I'm holding mine for 16 month and still it was cancelled0 -
I signed up for a progress card on Thursday last week, i've had the Classic for about 15 months.
Received a "Not long now" letter this morning along with a pin, just waiting on the card now.0 -
Whats your limit and history with them?
Never missed a payment, 2 increases since i've had the card. £200 to £400, then just recently £400 to £1000.
Mainly used the card for bits and pieces here and there, but it's normally had a standing amount on it, so they've always made a little bit of money out of me.0
