    Hi Loopy :)

    Congrats on the flybe :j

    I would call up cap 1 cs :eek: (I know)

    When I got my cap1 it was the free alerts and 2 free reports (usually £6.99 each). I didn't have to pay £69.99 upfront. Don't spend the money unless you have to!

    Ahh there is a bit of a story with my Cap One card...read the other thread if you are looking for a bit bedtime reading!!!!
    Aren't Cap One Experian reports though? I was wanting to look at my Equifax reports for nada if I could:D x

    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.

    Hi,

    Am hoping someone can clear this up for me.

    I have just applied for the Tesco Credit Card, and got the following message:

    If your application is successful we would be delighted to offer you a Tesco Credit Card as Detailed Below.

    Clubcard Strawberry
    19.9% apr

    Your Limit
    We are pleased to offer you a credit limit of £400

    And then the final screen said "Additional Checks are required before we can progress your application - 10 days blah blah"

    Is this going to be another standard no thank-you letter?

    The only reason i ask is because it said about a credit limit of £400 - anyone else had this?

    Thanks
