Principles + Ikano + MBNA Credit Cards

in Credit cards
Does anyone know it Principles had a credit card?
In 2007 I have some payments from my current account going to Principles Privilege.
I also had payments to MBNA and Ikano.
I know that MBNA is a banking company but not so sure about the other two.
I can't remember if these were credit cards, the amounts of the payments seem to suggest this rather than a store card.

Most of the retailers had cards in both credit and store flavours.
The only difference between the two is whether if can be used outside of the store.0 -
Ikano could be DFS purchase or from other store.0

Hi.
Yes Principles did have a Principles Privilage card that could be used in Burton Group stores. I had the "gold" card which gave me free alternations and some other perks.
I still have the card although the account is long closed. I used to buy all my togs from there for going clubbing in the 1990's. I thought Principles for Men had the edge over Next. The chain was closed down by Philip Green.
I don't remember them ever offering a card that could be used outside of Burton Group stores.0 -
Just to add. I went and checked there and Principles did offer a Visa card issued by Ikano Bank. (This must have been after my time with them as mines says GE Capital Bank, Leeds)0

Thank you all for your replies. I will try to make enquiries as to whether I had any accounts/ppi via the companies. Possibly via Santander I think.0
