    I applied and got accepted straight away although I was turned down for the Sony card a few weeks back. I am now confused but will keep applying for worthwhile offers:confused:

    i don't understand how they score these???:confused:

    P.S

    i did have my PIN after all, i'd just 'lost' under the piles of paper!!!;)

    When do you find out what cashback you have? Does it come out on the statement? I can't seem to see it on the online facility.

    Thanks

    I already have the "older" cashback card they did, and its always printed on the right hand side of your statement. It tells you the total you have accumulated for the month and year. Mine gets paid in January. It doesn't show it on their website.

    Mr P and I both have excellent credit history, we are rate tarts and never pay any penalties and pay in full every month - Mr P was declined - we are presumably not they type of people they are lookng for?

    what's the best way of maximising cashback?

    are there any sneaky ways such as buying a load of goods and returning them for a refund but not having the refund put back on the card?

    anyone know of any?

    Try GE Money - Just had a letter saying they credited 190144 to my account.

    Sorry missed out the word 'incorrectly' between they and credited.

    Please accept my apologies for any confusion that this may have caused - GE Money's words, not mine.

    :-)

    So anyone who makes payments to GE Money, check your account, you could be 190144 short.
  • thanks to all - i have just applied for a 4% cashback capital card and have never really ever read T&C, and found it really difficult to follow, and was scared to death - however i am glad someone knows - thanks again x
