Hi

Through Experian I was offered an AQUA card with 0% for 6 months I applied and was successful but n checking the email they have offered me a class - credit builder card and no the balance transfer one I applied for - what should I do now? Should I phone and cancel do I have a cancellation period?

I am really worried about credit score now
Thanks
Nat

    You don't have a credit score so no need to worry about it.

    You can exercise your right of withdrawal and only the search would show on your credit files.
