Blow it! I think I may have just messed something up.

Visa is the only credit card accepted in Madagascar and both of my credit cards are MasterCard. I contacted RBS and asked if they could swap my MC for a Visa. I was told I should have asked last week as they stopped issuing Visa cards on Monday.

So I then thought about applying for a new card. I went to the money supermarket website and put my details in to the credit card checker where they check your credit file and match you to the cards best suited to you. The results came back as me having an "Excellent" credit score (knew that already). However the only cards they were recommending for me were Capital One cards with HUGE API's:eek:

I decided to apply for one anyway and passed the initial credit assessment but before putting my digital signature on the credit agreement I thought "lets see what others are available and hopefully I can get a better card with a better API." I applied for an AA card which I was rejected for but it wasn't until afterwards that I noticed that the AA card is underwritten by MBNA. MBNA have never liked us as shortly before dad died he bought a JCB on his MBNA credit card (literally two weeks). MBNA were not happy about writing the debt off and ever since then whenever any of us have applied for an MBNA card or a card underwritten by MBNA it's always been a flat no, despite all of us having perfect credit ratings.

So I quickly went back and applied my digital signature to the Cap One credit agreement and now it's being processed and any further checks will be made. I hope my AA application doesn't mess things up with Cap One.

My share of the car hire will go on the card then it will never be used again so it's not really a great loss if I don't get it but it would have been handy for a back up of a back up when travelling.

Does anyone that knows about these things know if I've possibly messed up?

I know it's just cruel:( But I suppose how else do they do it?

what I meant was 1st they refuse them, then call a few hours later to accept them, a couple of people have mentioned it today, unfair on the kids to be honest!:)

Judging by her response, I better say "nothing" too.;):rotfl::rotfl:

Just been to T to get some pork. Iwas quite dismayed to see the shelf empty again..only a couple packs of chops. Same as when I was in a couple of days back.So I rummaged around with help of the kids and found the only 2 packs stashed right at the back of the shelf further along.....hidden underneath some lamb.....also the same as the other day:eek:

So if someone out there is stashing pork to come back and get it later
:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:Sorry, it was me:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

Afternoon and welcome back Happy chappy :T

Went to T and got a £54 shop down to £30 with coupons etc. I picked up 3 boxes of 38 wash Ariel Actilift powder for £5.50 each (and used £1 off from the car coupons).. thought it was a good price. Also picked up a few more packs of thr Thirst pockets 8 in a packet for £3.25.

Always "pads" reduced down to £1 so free if you print off £1 MOC from SSM

And i used 2 pizza vouchers - one on the trattoria Verdi (99p) and one on the chicago town The Edge at £1.49. SA was lovely.

I got overcharged on a bag of rocket and a bag of lambs lettuce. Should have been 2 for £1 but discount didn't come off so i got £2 back without asking.. so free!!

They know beforehand what grades the students have got so the only reason they maybe do this is because students pull out and decide on another Uni or a year out. The uni in question making the calls then works it way down a list of "reserves" until it fills the available space/spaces.
