I had a Vanquis at 39% - upped the limit a few times and sent credit card cheques (never used) - and then finally a APR to 50% - when I called they said it was a bussiness descion!!! I said I have no lates/missed payments and you must like me to up my limit to 2k! But they said nothing we can do....
Anyway a good 'credit' rebuilder if nothing else.0 -
My Vanquis is 39%. Still no limit increase though
I got my Next statement through and it's £300 this month :eek: . I was thinking of paying half but then looked at the APR and it's 24% so I think I will bite the bullett and pay the full amount. That'll teach me to spend so much lol.
Also got my A&L debit card yesterday. Has anyone had the CC from them yet? I still haven't heard anything0 -
Ive only ever had 1 apr rise and that was argos about 3 months ago, it went from 17.9 to 20.9, i still use it mainly coz they have 3 months interest free. which is really good. other than that they can shove it where the bugs don't bite0
