If you were instantly rejected, perhaps satisfy the outstanding debts and have the defaults put as satisfied in full, then wait a couple of months, THEN apply to rebuild your credit.
Im not insinuating im a victim, i'm merely pointing out the fact that it's a catch 22, You can't build credit, without having credit. I whole heartedly accept responsibility for my actions, All i am asking is how to remedy the situation.0 -
Did you apply for Vanquis? I didn't they did instant rejection - usually EITHER "we'll call you soon" or "we'll let you know in 14 days ish"Never argue with an idiot. Especially not this idiot because I'm always right anyway.0

I know personaly people who have been accepted by vanquis after being declared bankrupt, whilst my history is messy, it is by no means a lost cause. Just means i will have to take a longer less direct route. I am just glad that i researched it and found out that by reapplying to other lenders makes u look bad ect. Otherwise i would have applied to several different places.0
