    I will just be using my drivers license because like Proliant, I dont have a passport but I am not spending a stupid amount on a passport.

    Will they not take any other form of ID? Or proof that you are on the electoral role to prove who you are?

    I expect the requiring photo id is quite deliberate it excludes those who are likely at the most disadvantaged. This monument vista if the min limit is £500 I expect the capital one classic would be easier to get as that has lower limits.

    Anybody applied for the Monument card? Anybody heard back yet from the application? Kirstymccr have you had anything back yet?

    Just spoke to Monument, my account has been setup and my card is on it's way, they have give £500 @ 26.6%APR, less than the advertised 29.9%.
    Rember, they use Call Credit for their ID and Credit Check, so if you have a clean slate with them give it a try, they do state they accept people with CCJ and defaults.
