fatboyonadiet: I got sent a leaflet and an e-mail because I already have a coop ordinary account so I went into my local branch and they had leaflets etc on the counters. I got accepted and signed the forms on the spot. It arrived three days later. So just go into your local branch - may be on coop bank website, havent checked.

It is on the Coop web site. Here is a link.

Remember they also do a 0% BTs + purchases card for 7 months which even gives you points on BTs, details here.

Could be used as a SBT mule card if you time things right, as there are no fees for cash advances. No use for stoozing a balance as no interest free period for BTs.

The application asks you how much credit limit you want. However, the acceptable values are £5-10k. So I'll have to ask for a £15k match later - if I'm accepted.
