    WOW, you must be the only Vanquis customer on that rate, better rate then any subprime card. Quite shocked actually.
  • You've got me worried now, how can mine be so low then??

    Actually, you may be right, I just checked out the website.
    There are 7 tiers they offer, A - G

    You are on tier B = 29.84%

    This is on purchases, doesn't state the overall APR.

    Typical rate people get with Vanquis is Tier D = 39.94%

    Thats where i been getting confused.

    You must have a good rating in their eyes to be on that tier.
  • Thanks for that, it was very helpful.

    When I applied my credit rating was 891. I applied for a cc with my bank initially and they said that if it wasn't for my 3 defaults (which were 4 years ago now), they'd offer me their best credit card and a £20,000 loan!! Jeepers!

    Thanks again.
