    Please also read 4.1 My credit limit, no mention of what my credit limit is at all just that I will be told at a later date.

    that is a perfectly valid way to express the credit limit

    APR/INTEREST and how they determine the credit limit are specified in the second of these scaned documents

    How are they specific, apr says we will choose from a table depending on your credit rating and your credit limit will be set later, NO WHERE does it actually tell you the APR and credit limit. It is not specific its rather unspecific.
    I all have learnt is from others on many sites.
    Seek legal help if unsure.

    the credit limit doesn't have to be specific.

    they just have to express how they will determine it

    The credit limit expressed as:--

    (a) a sum of money;
    (b) a statement that the credit limit will be
    determined by the creditor from time to time
    under the agreement and that notice of it will be
    given by him to the debtor;
    (c) a sum of money together with a statement that
    the creditor may vary the credit limit to such sum
    as he may from time to time determine under the
    agreement and that notice of it will be given by
    him to the debtor; or
    (d) in a case not falling within head (a), (b) or (c)
    above, either a statement indicating the manner in
    which the credit limit will be determined and that
    notice of it will be given by the creditor to the
    debtor or a statement indicating that there is no
    credit limit.

    and later on

    A term stating the credit limit or the manner in
    which it will be determined or that there is no
    credit limit.

    In the case of an agreement for running-account credit, the following assumptions shall have effect for the purpose of
    calculating the APR in place of the assumptions in Part 4 of the Total Charge for Credit Regulations that might otherwise
    apply--
    (1) in any case where there will be a credit limit but that limit is not known at the date of making the agreement the
    amount of the credit to be provided shall be taken to be £1,500 or, in a case where the credit limit will be less than
    £1,500, an amount equal to that limit;

    (2) it shall be assumed that the credit is provided for a period of one year beginning with the relevant date;
    (3) it shall be assumed that the credit is provided in full on the relevant date;
    (4) where the rate of interest will change at a time provided in the agreement within a period of three years beginning
    with the date of the making of the agreement, the rate shall be taken to be the highest rate at any time obtaining under the
    in paragraph 9(a) to (c) of Schedule 1 to these

    Regulations.
    Repayments
    5. Consumer credit agreements. A term stating how the debtor is to discharge his
    obligations under the agreement to make the
    repayments, which may be expressed by reference
    to a combination of any of the following--
    (a) number of repayments;
    (b) amount of repayments;
    (c) frequency and timing of repayments;
    (d) dates of repayments;
    (e) the manner in which any of the above may be
    determined;
    or in any other way, and any power of the creditor
    to vary what is payable.
    6. Consumer hire agreements. A term stating how the hirer is to discharge his
    obligations under the agreement to pay the hire
    payments, which may be expressed by reference to
    a combination of any of the following--
    (a) number of payments;
    (b) amount of payments;
    (c) frequency and timing of payments;
    (d) dates of payments;
    (e) the manner in which any of the above may be
    determined;
    or in any other way, and any power of the owner to
    vary what is payable.


    So i take it they assume that the credit limit is £1500 even though it sint mentioned and that the APR will be the highest of the 3.
