Vanquis Credit Card

Hi everyone

Just applied for a Vanquis credit card to improve my credit rating, at the end of the application it said someone will be in contact within the next 3 days to complete my application does this mean I have been accepted for the card?

Many thanks

    No probs :-)
    I got same message from both vanquis and capital one. Was accepted with both but low limits. Left it 6-7 months then applied to barclaycard and was accepted instantly with a huge limit. Use regularly , but small amounts and pay off in full with direct debit. Helps build a good credit history for better future cards.
    Good luck x
