Savings and Credit Cards

I assume savings in a CURRENT account would help to some extent, as they specifically take Current Account performance into consideration (LBG at least).
On my DSAR from Lloyds it shows high/low/average balance and their card decline/ineligible page makes reference to performance of LBG accounts.
If your account is consistently say +£10k and getting your salary in, that'd be (in my view) better than if it was £500 & getting salary in, but the £10k was sat in a different savings account (even if it was with Lloyds) as the computer might not pick that up.
Ultimately the main one is going to be income/debt/CRA feed though as above.0
