What kind of APRs do they offer?Since when has the world of computer software design been about what people want? This is a simple question of evolution. The day is quickly coming when every knee will bow down to a silicon fist, and you will all beg your binary gods for mercy.0

My Barclays account has been run extremely well. I've had the account over a year now as it got transferred from Woolwich. Never had any charges, never gone over my limit. Whatever, it's their loss lol0 -

Is your equifax file clear then? I took the following off their website:
Who is eligible to apply for a Flybe Card?
UK (including Isle of Man and Channel Islands) residents aged 18 years and over and over with a UK (including Isle of Man and Channel Islands) bank or building society account. You will need to provide a landline telephone number for home or work and have a regular source of income through full-time or part-time employment of more than 16 hours per week (this can be you or your partner), or be a student, retired or on incapacity benefit. Finally, you need to have a clean credit history, ie, no arrears, defaults, County Court Judgments (CCJs), bankruptcies or Individual Voluntary Agreements (IVAs). You will also need to provide an active email address in order for you to register with the Rewards4all programme.
It doesn't sound like a subprime card.
Pleased to hear about British Gas, although they shouldn't have put them on in the first place :mad:0 -
