skycard+barclaycard

hi, iwas wondering if it is possible to have a skycard (had one for 5 months now)and apply for a barclaycard and get accepted given that skycard is owned by barclaycard or would it be pointless and a waste of a credit search,TIA

    Yes, me too - high limit on Sky Card and low Barclaycard limit - just had some 0% sky card cheques come through post too.
  • hi,thanks for the reply i am thinking of applying for a barclaycard today now as i have had my skycard with them 5months all my payments have been on time never been over the limit or near it do you think that i would have a good chance of getting one given that the skycard has been paid on time every month or will they do another series of credit checks
