SRuben it might have made more sense to bring your Vanquis card back within its limit rather than paying the finance company the £100 today. Why not use your credit cards now responsibly so that you can rebuild your credit? If Capital One gave you a card with a £500 limit from the get-go that's really not bad. Your credit status can't be completely shot to pieces!0

Thank you for your response. I think I just panicked as it said it was deliquent balance. I am going to aim to get vanquis back within its credit limit after Christmas. I have used the capital one card a couple of times but have transferred money from my normal account to the card to pay it back so it is now £500 again. 2009 will hopefully mean a better credit rating for me.0

SRuben, is there no way you can get that Vanquis balance down within its limit ASAP? Before Christmas?0

Possibly why is being over your limit bad for your credit rating.0

yes and you will incur charges as well.0
