Next credit account. How do you close?

My sister signed up to Noddle for a free check & everything is in order, except under the credit section & under "open" she has a Next account. She wasn't aware this was running like a credit card & she'd like it closed.

How do you go about closing this? Can it only be done via the phone? Or is there other ways you can do it, such as post/email?

    When I closed mine, I'm pretty sure I logged into my account and pressed a button to close it; I closed it in December and it's only showing up this month as closed in my Noddle report as it took them a while to get updated info to Noddle. Has she tried calling them?

    If it's paid up to date and not in use, it should be pretty easy. Looks like you can either phone them or email them.

    Cheers. I'll let her know.

    No she hasn't tried calling them yet. She only did the Noddle registration late last night.

    If she goes on the Next website and chooses contact us she can ask for them to give her a call back straight away.
    I've used that service twice. It's superb. Will save her the phone call cost. This is moneysaving lol :)
