    Heres what's in my wallet no cash! back in 2002 when I went bankrupt I had £70k worth of unsecured debt, 8 credit cards etc learnt the hard way


    PS If anyone can tell me why Santander won't upgrade my electron card after spending 7mths paying £1500 in each and every month on the 25th and not once can they give me the full debit card?

    If you know pm me!, I shall wait until september if they don't by then it's cut and distroy time!


    Little update really things are getting slightly better but still no full debit card with abbey? yet I can get a full £250 chequee g/tee card with Lloyds! go figure!.

    Also I think I have an updated solo card with rbs as I went to activate it in branch today and she said not full card apparently! think wait few months hopeful of an upgrade.
