    Update. 
    The card appears in my banking app now. 
    However........the credit limit is £200. By far the lowest I’ve ever had. But that’s ok. Considering I don’t have “prime cards” , until now. 

    My question is, how often do they offer credit limit increases if managed well and paid in full, always?

    Almost certainly they won't offer you an increase at all until you prove your income.

    £200 is what they give you before you do this.

    they haven’t asked me to prove it. Should I call them up?
