I applied when I had a default on my experian credit report, but equifax was clean. Sygma Bank only searched equifax, so I'm not sure I would have been accepted if they had searched experian.
Also Barclaycard was the same. I was accepted because they only checked equifax.
I have the other cards, Capital One/Vanquis/Aqua, and am now trying to pay the remaining balances off so I can close the accounts.
I have also been accepted for the MBNA card following the link on here. I sent my deposit off on Monday0 -
Have any of our fellow sub primers tried the Halifax Classic. I've got this with a £1900 limit and I've had it for 6 years or so. Just been looking on the website and it is aimed as a credit builder. APR is 27.9% so slightly better than the others:

Good news about the MBNA :j .
It's just so random about the CRAs! Anything I apply for from now on I'm only going to use lenders who search Experian, as they're my good one lol!!0 -

When I completed my application for the all saints card (same issuer) I also got this message.
A credit agreement was sent out to me within 10 days to sign. The card came soon after.0 -
