Is it worth applying for a Virgin CC

Considering applying for a Vigin MBNA card next month to add to my stoozing, not sure if I am likely to get approved though.

I currently have an MBNA platinum 0% until December 2008 with £10k CL and 9k stoozed.
I also have a Halifax £12k CL for slow stooz with 3k stoozed.

Is this likely to mean I will get rejected by Virgin due to having the outstanding amount on the MBNA card. Any one that has experience of getting a Virgin card with an MBNA card?

    I've just been accepted for a Virgin CC. The CS guy could see that I have a MBNA card too (with 10K limit) and suggested that I split the limit between to two cards (does that make sense?)

    I don't know what would have happened if I'd have refused, though.
