I have read the threads and I'm wondering how bad a credit citibank will accept. Mine has 3CCJs and 2 defaults I'm really desperate for this account if available. Anybody with this bad a credit history been fortunate enough to open an account?

Well the a the Citibank application pack arrived this morning. Completed and returned even though I have'nt asked for an overdraft I've enclosed my wage slip in the hope it will strengthen my application.
I also received a Halifax easycash pack requesting id etc- I did the original online application 16 days ago and had given up.
let's hope Citibank come up trumps.

Well I got my welcome pack to day and also my 3 PIN numbers. What worries me now is the welcome pack says I should receive my card shortley (Doesn't say which one) and that my PINs will follow, however I have my PINs already, did anyone else get this or should I worry that my card has gone astray?
Also does the card come normal post or do I have to sign as there is no one in when the postie comes to my house.
Thanks again to everyone who gaev me help and advice.

Hi all,

I called them today (got my id back yesterday dated the 31st, and they said that my application is still being processed) Oh I wish i could speed things up, would just like to know that i have been accepted!

Guess i just have to wait like everyone else. Think i will call again on Monday if i havent heard anything by then!

One for using your card in the cashpoint, one for telephone banking and one for online banking.

You can't send a cheque on behalf of your sister as they use the cheque as some form of Id, Just tell your sister to send additional id such as a copy of driving licence or passport

Thanks but my sister has no passport or driving licence.
God just my sisters luck.
Thanks we need all the help we can get.

I got my application form today after filling it in online, for some reason it's got 0 printed in the income box. Should I just write my income in over the 0?

You only need the online one the first time you use it. After you're registered for online banking it asks for your username/password when you log on in future- you choose those yourself.
