Not heard a reply from them yet after a week.
Think my credit should be OK now (had problems a few years ago).
Do you think that means I'm pretty much screwed?
Also, I've noticed that since I applied the typical APR has went from 7.9% to 8.9%...do you think I'll still get 7.9% because I applied before it changed?

i am trying to think how long it took me. I am sure it was only a couple of days, but that was last year before all thier problems so maybe they are being more cautious about lending now.Anyone who lives within their means suffers from a lack of imagination:beer:

Its possible it has been delayed in the post due to the strike backlog ... I am getting mail but i reverse order i.e ewly posted stuff is arrivng sooner and even stuff posted on Wednesday didn't get here till Sat.

I started a thread last week about the same thing, but with a different lender. heard nothing until a rejection letter six days after applying. So I would say go to Plan B! Of course, you may still get lucky...0
