    Surely £20k minus tax equals something in the region of £1250 per month, well it did last time I earned that amount.....

    You do need to earn £20k though to bank with them, or they just decline you due to credit score, i.e. failed to meet requirements.

    you'll get the forms through the post and then when you return them they will credit check you. So even though you get forms, doesn;t guarantee an account at the end of it all.

    I done this back in January and got declined for bank account but about 2 weeks later got the Gold AADvantage card through the post..... weird but obviously their bank account is scored higher.

    Good luck - keep us posted :D

    Where does it say you need £20K to bank with them, When I joined them I was only putting a few hundread a month in my account, only in the past year I started crediting my salary.

    Well i got my application form today.

    I accidentally entered my annual salary incorrectly, so i am going to do a covering letter to inform them. I tried to phone the help line but said they could not change it over the phone.

    Also, it does not ask me to send in any forms of ID or bills, is this usual, or does that come later?

    Thanks

    When I applied 2years ago I was asked for ID ie bills etc at the time they sent the application out. It may have changed now.
