    Vanquis is by far the easiest. But should be attempted only as a last resort - and used ONLY for credit building and NOT debt building, because the interest rate will kill you.

    I've had a couple of Cap One cards (and still do have one) and I've never, ever had a stich of bother with them. Plus I get free Equifax membership.

    Can't comment on Aqua, but I assume that handling your account well with Capital One may open up offers to their other cards and accounts (someone will let me know if that's not the case).

    Vanquis the easiest, Aqua the hardest. Capital one somewhere in the middle.

    is vanquis 0% interest if you pay in full each month i assume it is or does this not apply to this more expensive card.

    All cards are interest free if paid in full every month.

    Agree that Vanquis is easiest to get. Even my grandfather could get one, and he died twenty years ago.

    If you're vaugley humanoid in shape, have 90% human DNA and are breathing on a regular basis, then you should get a Vanquis

    Even Hitler got one.
