    Possible a new CC for us Sub Primers? Freemans have a credit card operated by Vanquis. I wonder if you would be able to have Vanquis and this? I'm going to apply anyway and see.

    EDIT - Ah, just read this:

    i have 2 defaults(2003 and one this year) and 2 ccj's(2004 and 2007) all of which are unsettled. Thanks to this forum i've managed to get a vanquis card and 3 catalogue accounts within the last few weeks. Still unable to get a current account though :(
