A large ammount of online applications? Wonder where that started.....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.0

Hi All
I have been accepted for Aqua and I thought it might help people to know my credit status (which according to Experian and their expensive credit score option is 772 - fair).
Three defaults - Dec 03 £1200, March 05 £4k, April 05 £1600. All settled. No CCJs. A number of current credit accounts all up to date and no missed payments for two years, and before that just the odd month. At the time of application I had no searches in the last six months and three in the last twelve months.
The limit I got was £1k and I have had the agreement to sign (very quickly too).
In April I got Capital One with a £1k limit (now £1600, went up on 4th statement) - at the time I had one previous search in the last six months.
Capital One checked Experian and Equifax. Aqua only checked Experian.
I hope that is of some help.0 -

Hi Fairmorn - could you tell us a bit more about the circumstances around your Cap 1 default removal? I have tried and failed- my debt was 40% charges which I largely got back. The whole overlimit amount was charges.0 -

Is your one with a DCA now and if so which one?0 -
