    Just to update on this, I finally got notification through that I'd been accepted about a week go, and the card arrived on Friday. It had been so long that I really thought it was a no, but I'm glad to hear otherwise.

    Congratulations! I'm going to apply for one later in the year when my current balance transfers have ended.

    Edit: Although I can't fathom why it took 2 months from application to getting the card.

    I know; I thought it was really odd. It came eventually though, so I'm not too worried.

    Thanks for the congratulations. I'm really pleased, as I only wanted one so I could start building up a bit of a credit history (it's going to be paid off in full each month). Next step is to save enough for a deposit!
