    I did apply to Ulster Bank online and they gave me a Step account with a Solo card. I'll just keep that in stand by in case anything goes wrong with the Halifax.

    what account did you apply for with Ulster? I recieved my paying in book today from Ulster, still waiting on card coming to see if they give me the debit card they said I would get in the branch :rolleyes: .

    I cannot wait to tell Halifax to close my aco!!!!s:beer:

    I applied for the Current Plus but because I am not working due to illness I was only offered the Step account which was approved.

    It was the Current Plus we got , although I do not work for same reason as you my hubby does so guess that makes a difference. My DD had step account for about 6 months then was able to change to Current plus so hopefully you will eb the same.

  • I'm still awaiting my card from Capital One. While I'm waiting I'm trying to decide whether to apply for a Virgin or MNBA card.

    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.

    Evening All,

    Well what did I say...Got the Dear John letter from Flybe this morning so thats a no go but I did receive my paperwork from Citibank UK and they didn't want the payslip just confirmation of my address..Does this mean I have been refused the overdraft but can still have the account??

    I have signed all I was asked to and it's gone back in the post today, so should have my new account by end of next week :T
    Hi, sorry about the Flybe. Can you tell us how long it took for the reply-been waiting 2 weeks now. Good luck with citibank.:j
