    :j :j :j :j :j :j :j

    I've been umming and ahhing over whether to apply but bit the bullet and just applied using Darcy's link and got an instant approval!!!! I've never had an instant approval before :D

    And.......a credit limit of £3100!!!!!!!!!!!

    Somehow, I think they may have made a mistake, but I guess I'll have to wait and see :D

    Thanks so much for the motivating thread guys

    Thanks Emmy, I hope not :)

    I'm just really surprised as I have defaults on my file. Got a Cap 1 and Vanquis a couple of months ago and have been very good with them. But I've never had such a high limit :D

    No idea what the APR is. I used the link from Darcy so is that the 19%. Even better if so :D
  • Hello all. I've been lurking here for a couple of years and have found some great advice that has really helped me out. So after being at the bottom of the credit heap for about 5 years I have finally taken a step up. I have now got a Littlewoods account and also I got accepted for a Vanquis card. :D:D:D.

    I have still got 2 defaults and 1 CCJ (all satisfied and due to fall off beginning of next year)but finally I am starting to get somewhere and can slowly start repairing the damage that I did. Boy have I learnt my lesson :o

    Well got my letter today from MBNA, credit agreement now signed, cheque enclosed and will post letter this afternoon. APR of 19.9% for purchases and 29.9% for cash withdrawls. Have also signed up to pay full amount by DD so hopefully by this time next week should have my card.:j

    Well done to everyone who got the card. I received my credit report and I can see that I have a CCJ and Default that are not showing satisified even though they ARE....arhhhhhhhhhhhh. So I am off to fix that. Maybe I will have better luck next time.
