Student Credit Card
Comments
-
when i was a student, i held an account with barclays - they gave me a card after 3-4 months of running the account.
I was an international student 3 years ago. I put one year tuation fee, which was 10,000 for an international student, into my Barclays student account. Then I got a credit card with 250 pounds limit. It went up to 400 after half year. Now they have upgraded it to a Barclay golden card with 3500 pounds limit, because I asked them to. I think if I ask for more limit, they would consider that rather than saying no straighly.:rotfl:

Have you tried applying for a normal Halifax card?
No, because after reading the cards they offer I don't believe they're suitable for students. (i.e. "I have a good credit record".)"Do not spoil what you have by desiring what you have not; but remember that what you now have was once among the things you only hoped for."
