Are you sure, never knew that? I also noticed MI Money I have seen that name on here linked to the Luma Card which has something to do with Capital One?

Just found posts and it says its a 'rebranded' MBNA card and MI Money behind it.

Ah right, didn't realise but wouldn't they just be the one's doing a soft search? But MBNA behind the card (fluid)

huh? moneysupermarket is the credit intermediary, i.e. gets the commission when you apply for a card thru mse

the soft search is something else which they pay noddle for

Luma is issued by cap one and mi money.
