Not quite true.

I saw a CashCard+ being used 37,000ft in the air on Monday night....

Interesting. It could still have had a live link perhaps? I'm not that up to date on flight technology.

I know that all-auth cards where I work have a £50 limit for cash withdrawals where the link isn't available (for example if the ATM system is unable to connect to the bank), but I don't think that works for debit card transactions.

I'd be interested to find that out.

Cheers,

I have £750+ credits per month for the whole 10 years. The account has always had a positive balance and never been overdrawn, in fact there is no overdraft facility.

I didn't realise that mortgages and current accounts had a different profile from the banks/building societies point of view, but then not one of the customer service people have told me that.

Either way, I find out on Monday

That surprises me, given that it's fairly basic knowledge. Hell, it's even common sense.

I wrote that in a bit of a hurry. I meant, I thought a mortgage would have stricter rules than a current account upgrade.

Got a call earlier today, they've upgraded my account. Apparently there was something adverse on my credit file for £85 in 2009. I regularly check both my Equifax and Experian credit report and this does not show up.
