    Bizarrely they said it was nothing to do with my credit file; I just did not meet their "criteria" whatever they are.

    I hate Marmite so it couldn't be that :D
  • As I said before in a previous post, I had low limits with Sigma (JJB 450 & All Saints 750) Then came Flybe £2000.

    I reckon Flybe give you a very substantial larger limit because they want you to use their site, and book flights and accomodation with them, and send you promotional discounts to do so lol

    Maybe it's just me, but going on my own circumstance, and what others have said regarding limits, Flybe is always alot higher ;)
  • you guys applying via sigma, What sort of things you got on your record with equifax?

    cause the only thing i have that majorly affecting me is a CCJ unsatisfed which does drop off in 4 weeks time, you think its worth re-applying for there cards then?
  • So do Sygma
  • So do Sygma use Equifax - or any other CRA? Both my Equifax or Experian are fine.
