Apart from number 1 and 2, my card already offers the above. they even offered me 3.3% balance transfer for 6months with no transfer fees. but i dont use it as I already have a BC with 25 months 0% on balance transfer and purchases. just keeping the aqua because its my longest card.Aqua Advance £ 9500 ( Settled ) | BC Platinum Card 25/25 £10500 | 24 studio £1950 | SimplyBe £1800 | Nationwide Flexplus A/C OD £800| Meaningless Noddles score= 3/50 -

I have had my account 20 months with a £4450 limit. Don't know what triggers an upgrade to gold card. I have always paid in full each month. Not even spending a lot on it each month.I came into this world with nothing and I'm gonna leave with nothing.0 -
Keeps on coming up doesn't it. Probably significant that no-one has yet posted any link to information about it either on the aquacard site or on the newday site. In fact the only Aqua Gold card I can find is from Kotac Mahindra Bank in India:
http://www.kotak.com/personal-banking/cards/credit-cards/aqua-gold-card.html
Unless anyone can post such information I have to conclude that those who post about the Aqua Gold Card are talking out of their ... er ... well, you know what I mean.
Lastly, when I had an Aqua Advance card I received several offers of promos involving lower interest purchases and Balance Transfers but none of them involved an upgrade to a Gold card.
Looking forward to that proof being posted!0 -
Thanks, 12 months isn't too long then!
Anyone got one with lower limits? I've got £900 at the moment, presumably it'll be upped next month for my month 4 review/increase, but I don't expect it to go above 2k until my bankruptcy is older. I spend about 3/400 a month, will always pay in full
Got reward already, but the contactless would be pretty decent.0 -
Had a bad experience with Aqua while signing up - eventually had to go to the Ombudsman to get them to fix my credit rating they'd made a mess of! If you want to match the 0.5% cashback, Nationwide Select does a good job - worked seamlessly for me!0
