Might be wise to leave it be then.RBYHS said:Well I hope I won’t get to that stage! It would ruin my chances of getting a mortgage in a few months!I’ll keep you updated.
In fact, it probably would have been wise to not apply for any credit at all if you're looking to apply for a mortgage.0 -

I think you will be alright as, i'm sure Barclaycard ask for your annual salary before tax and your take home pay after tax, as long as the take home pay was correct then they should be fine. Think about some people have irregular hours or different payment schedules depending on bonuses/overtime, so there take home pay doesn't always match up to the annual salary on a month to month basis.2 -
I do small jobs on the side as well. So if they’d like my bank statements besides the payslips I’d be happy to provide those as well! Which would increase by 1k approximately my declared income1

If you're going to say you're self-employed on the side they'll want to see an SA302.RBYHS said:I do small jobs on the side as well. So if they’d like my bank statements besides the payslips I’d be happy to provide those as well! Which would increase by 1k approximately my declared income0 -
Not yet, I got that after I'd already done it and just ignored it. My original submission processed fine.RBYHS said:I have received this again. Should I upload everything once more?
I also got a letter in the post saying the credit card application had been rejected when it hadn't. I don't hold much faith in their systems!0 -
Update - no confirmation email though. But this is what the app shows now 😊
