Accepted for Aqua Classic Card

afletcher859

Yesterday I was checking my credit report on Experian and took a look at the credit cards I was likely to be accepted for, to my surprise I was 100% likely to be accepted for an Aqua Classic credit card. I'm surprised because I have a bad credit score (622 on Experian) and have never been accepted for cards before. I filled in the form and was told i'd been accepted and that I would receive my card and pin in the post, around half an hour later I received an email with my APR% (24.7%) and further confirmation of being accepted and was told again that within 10 working days I would receive my card and pin in the post.

Does anybody have any experience going through this and not receiving the card? I'm very reluctant to believe that I am going to receive this card especially with such a low APR.

Until you receive your card, you cannot be certain that everything is okay. Aqua can still review your application. I would think that this is unlikely though. Just be happy that your application appears successful.


Since it is your first card, I'll give you a few tips:

• Every month, use the card for your normal groceries and travel costs as these things are already in your monthly budget.
• Don't buy things using the card that are not already in your monthly budget.
• Every month pay the statemented balance in full so as not to incur interest.
• Set up a DD to pay the balance in full, so as not to forget to make your monthly payment.

So after multiple emails confirming acceptance you don’t think you’ve been accepted!?

Ignore your score as it’s not a real number lenders see or use
