    Can we please get back to the original topic. Take your arguments elsewhere please.

    I don't argue I just retaliate to posts when I am being questioned and in this instance lemon boy with a cash flow problem started talking about his favourite TV show.

    That's not a bad credit limit actually quite high for NW.
  • Brand new , no i dont really need a credit card lol was just testing the water .... after 6 years of clearing up my mess

    TBH it feels good that i can qualify for pretty much all the cards that i dont really need them .... strange thing is when i had cards i couldnt afford them ,now i can afford them i dont want 1

    maybe thats just growing up and getting wiser

    good luck to all you card spankers :)

    She received credit agreement today asking her to sign and return - no documentation requested. In the "society use only part " it says Decision and "Accepted box is ticked" and it also states id confirmed.

    No change what was offered on the application. It looks to me it has been accepted. I thought online application do not require a signature? She did tick the box at the end of the application.

    MS

    Got mine today and yes the 'society use only part' paper, with the Decision section with Accepted box ticked and Credit limit box states £3200 (plus on the letter it stated my limit as well). Although it says i need to provide ID - which I can do, I called them today to say would it be easier if I popped into my local branch and they fully recommended this as it will speed up the process rather having to wait with post etc. I did ask am I accepted though and confirmed I am all I had to do was show ID and sign (apparently all they want to see is a signature and its not just some tom !!!!!! and harry applying) then they just hit the 'go' button on the system for the account to be opened. Here we go...

    If they are offering those kind of limits - in my experience, its more than likely its a yes. Only worry if its a low limit with a 19.9% APR.
