    Barclays did the annoying you have been pre-approved, just send us 2 forms of ID and we will send you a card .... then rejected me.

    Hmm, another one. A couple of other posters have mentioned the same. Why the hell do they do this? Waste of time. Reject outright, or don't bother!

    I have an old AP marker on an old loan account (settled 18 months ago) and have been accepted for the following cards in the last year

    Natwest (my main bank) Your Points World Mastercard, £5400 limit 17.9% apr (taken out in July 2011)
    Halifax Clarity Card £3350 limit 19.9% apr (taken out in July 2011)
    BMI Amex Duo £3700 limit 16.9% apr (taken out in January 2012)

    I earn just under £24500, and have also opened a few bank accounts in the last year.
    Debt free and staying that way! :beer:

  • I want a pre paid credit card that would be accepted for Hotel Reservations. Can anyone help, I am in year 4 of an IVA and have not tried to apply for any cards as yet. I am going on holiday and the hotel is insisting on a valid credit card imprint. Help!:):)
