Is spending on a credit card and immediately paying it a bad thing?!

    So, having made the error it seems of paying off the balance of my Vanquis before the statement date, I spoke to them and they said my credit limit hadn't increased because I wasn't using the card. So, in the last two weeks went up to £450 out of the £500 limit. Statement through today, paid off in full. 2 hours later got confirmation my credit limit's going up to £1500.

    May or may not be useful for others.
