  • to little miss cheap,

    I hadn't heard anything as of yesterday and it was 2 weeks since posting. So I called them up to see if they had received my application. Thats when they told me yes it's received, set up, and credit limit is......etc.

    Give them a call to make sure they got it.

    tel 0800 952 5150

    First off a big thank you to Spotty for sending me the form.

    Got onto cap1 by phone earlier having not heard anything for 3 weeks

    They said card is set up and the BT had already been done ( i don't have the card yet).

    Checked it out and there it is..£12k limit and 11.9k BT'd to Egg.

    Now how do i get the money from egg to cuurent account please ?

  • Can we have a little survey to see what the highest limits are so far for the 18m deal?

    We got 12k, and we asked for £17k BT.

    Not complaining. I am not a stoozer, but 1/2 way through a getoutofdebt plan, so the higher the better obviously. Was thinking of waiting a month and ringing up and saying, "I am closing my Halifax1 card witha 12k limit, would you increase my limit to reflect this" mmm???
  • Does anyone know which current magazines have the 18mth BT Cap1 card offer in them?

    No worries frequent :)

    I'm wondering how high a limit I could have got. I asked for 12k to BT from Egg... they gave me a 12.1k limit (just enough).

    Applied on 2/11. Not get information from them. But found out today they they had done BT from my MBNA card on 11/11. Don't know the limit, but they did all the 10k I asked.
    Now I have avilable credit on my MBNA card. Not sure how much they will charege if I ask for another BT to my current account.
