    I get junk 'have one of our credit card' mail all the time.

    I fill them in and, against occupation, I write 'undischarged bankrupt'. Strangely, I never get the cards (or any more junk mail from that firm).

    Be careful doing this as I suspect it could adversely affect your credit rating!

    And to the O.P., is it possible you incorrectly filled in the electoral roll information? You might have, for instance indicated your daughter as over 18 by including her on the form.

    It's also likely that once a credit check was carried out they would find out her age and cancel the application.

    Still a bit scary that they push products like this though.......
