    evening everyone :D

    I have gave all my credit cards and bank cards to my OH and decided to use my vanqis card which has £250 limit on it until end of the month. I have set myself a challenge to see if i can do it. All my direct debits are paid and so is all the MIN payments on credit cards and still got £1200 positive balance in my current account.

    I am looking forward to this, all my loose change has already been counted lol

    Hey Fairmorn :)

    You still have £1200 till the end of the month after all bills????? When do you next get paid - end of Nov or Dec?

    Remember, don't withdraw cash on the Vanquis - totally not worth the charges.

    i get a wage end of Nov and then my new companies wage on the 20th dec.

    Dont worry i wont i still have around £60 cash in my wallet and will do my best to keep that if i cant use my card.

    Only reason am using this card is cause i havent used it and it has the smallest limit which i think is a good challenge :D

    Well good luck on the challenge. No treats, you have to be strict! Think of all the low credit card bills you'll get after Christmas :D

    Hello everyone, have set and read this thread from the beginning. I had a bancrupcy, and a house repossession on my credit files until the beginning of last month. An unsettled default that should technincally not be on my record as it should have been wiped when everything else dropped off. But I have been accepted for Capital One, Vanquis & Flybe. I am amazed!! Now I can start rebuilding my credit file. I did get turned down for the Momentum one tho.
