    I've found that Barclaycard are pretty generous with their limits. They gave me around 5k when I was working part time and they happily increased it three months later without me even asking! :eek:

    way back i found them Very cautious. for years, while MBNA increased my limits Barclaycard left me with an account with a CL of only £380. but then when they started taking over other card providers, and i was able to consolidate accounts, they wound giving me great limits. they can be very awkward, but can be very generous too, when you get them working with you.
