How long is a bit of string.
There are a lot of variables so a true answer is difficult to predict.
Have a look at your own credit score with one of the credit scoring companies that will give you a starting point and follow that up by reading Martins articles on credit scoring and card applications and you will have a idea when to apply .Credit limit are related to your previous payments and your current wages.If you earn £15000 a year I would be surprised if you got more than £4000 limit.0
