Just had a quick look at how many people have looked at this thread, over five thousand in less than three weeks, must be generating some interest, I wonder if any of the boss's of the latter mentioned sub prime lenders have viewed this thread, well thank you to everybody who has contributed so far as in my view has became quite a useful pool of information.

Slightly off-topic but I've been accepted by Littlewoods for £400 credit on their catalogue. I don't use them at all, but as Proliant keeps pointing out - they are great for getting those cherished Green Zeros (I've become mildly obsessed with the little things) on to your credit report.

Thanks for the tip, Proliant!

But it may come in handy one day as Littlewoods do 0% APR for 12 Months so if you nedd a new TV or Cooker then it could help you out. Well done on getting an account though.

Congrats!

Get NEXT catalogue as well U don't have to buy anything from them. It's fun going through the catalogues on a boring sunday evening though.

Will keep that in mind, thanks Proliant.

Just out of interest do the catalogue companies do a credit check when you apply for them, because nothing has come up on my report - although I've only checked Experian.

And which CRA's do Littlewoods report to?

The Shop Direct Financial Services (Littlewoods, Kays, Marshal Ward, Additions) do a check with Equifax then report to all three CRA's

Excellent. Thanks everyone.

Was thinking of starting a 'Little Green Zeros' thread where we can all put in our tips on how to get the little fellas, but I'm hoping Proliant won't mind if we keep it all in here, as it's all relevant, especially for those of us using sub-Prime credit cards.
