Hi so i have been trying to rebuild my credit and managed to get it to a fair rating on experian, so i applied for a cap 1 and barclaycard and got accepted with limit of £200 cap 1 and £1500 barclaycard. The next month my score went down about 200 to very poor. Is this normal?

Yes. The scores are made up and change with the weather.
Two new accounts will make lenders less likely to throw more credit at you for a while, but your score has no importance.0
