in Credit cards
Hello,

I am looking to get a credit card. I applied for one with tesco bank a few days ago and got declined due to credit scoring. I have recently checked my credit score with experian and it was fair at 755.

I have 1 store card and 1 credit card already.

I want a new one for the 0% balance transfer for 16 months to consolidate my store card and current credit card (natwest)

Any suggestions as where to look?

    Look at the factual information on your credit report. Ignore the score it's meaningless.

    What does the factual information say about you and your credit facilities?
