  • lol oops

    some retailers have different rules on-line about which cards they will take. this can be different to in the shops
  • Hi
    Ive just been looking for something like this myself, if you check out credit card comparison sites, there are a few, i was thinking of going for the Quidity one myself
    its a credit only credit card, so you have to top it up to use it. this can be done easily at paypoint outlets. it is accepted where you see switch/ maestro.
    this one offers no monthly fee, free to top up, and free to apply if you top up with initial £20.
    go to http//www.quiditycard.com or which credit card to do a comparison

    there is a fee of £1.50 for each purchase/ withdrawal but the best offer i found

    According to Yorkshire banks website there are no Yorkshire banks within 30 miles of me :(

    I have looked into cards such as Quidity, the problem that i have with them is that they have to be topped up at a paypoint, and with the double buggy i cant get into any of the smaller shops round here :rolleyes: and end up walking to the co-op and spending a fortune while im in there :o which pretty much defeats the point of doing it :o

    Anymore suggestions gladly welcomed :o

  • I know Sainsburys accept electron.
    They are dearer but I'm assured by someone who shops on line with them - that it works out cheaper because you're on line you only buy what you need & don't make impulse buys like you would shopping in person.

    I would try phoning up a yorkshire bank and explaining your situation and see if they will let you open it by post or something?

    They seem really helpful I went in there today to open one, got an appointment for monday they said it will be opened there and then no probs as long as not bankrupt or previously declared bankrupt and i will have the card within a few days. Cant wait.
