Well what a stupid question, they obviously need further information from you! I don't understand why so many people post questions like this rather than just pick up the phone and find out.
Be nice! Anyway to the OP, they might need to verify your identity and/or source of income etc. Just give them a ring.0 -
Good evening everyone Littlewoods have increased my credit limit from £330 to £600 :j :j .0

Hi DanDan it may be that they want a security deposit, a few sub-primers on here have been asked to ring them and they say you can have a £500 limit but have to pay £100. You get this back in 6 months of having your card i think. Give them a ring and find out. HTH0

Hi, I done a online application for the Aqua card on Wednesday and got this message at the end of the application.......
"Application Reference - AAQZJHQ5BZ
Mr xxx xxxxxx
Thank you for your recent application for an aqua credit card. We are delighted to tell you that it has been approved and that you have been granted an estimated credit limit of £900.
Within the next 10 working days you will receive a letter from us confirming this. All you need to do is read, sign and return the signature form to us.
Upon receipt of your signed credit agreement form, your new PIN number will be despatched. You will then receive your new card within 10 working days.
Thank you again for your application, we look forward to welcoming you as a new and valued customer."
And yesterday I got the letter and signed and returned the credit agreement, now I don't want to be disappointed but do you think I have got the card or could they still say no !.
Thanks.0 -

Please drop the attitude as we tend to be a "friendly" bunch on here and don't bark at each other or any new posters for that matter.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,
Applied for one of these last weekend, and at the end of the application it stated it could not give me a decision straight away, but if I am accepted I will get the card in the post, and if they need more information they will write to me.
It's been a week now and I have heard nothing. I don't know how long it normally takes, but last time I got this response a few years back I was written to within 48 hours saying that I'd been declined.
I signed an online form apparently which saves the need for forms to be signed.
Anyways, is the delay a good sign and they're sending me the card? Anyone else applied for one of these recently?
Cheers, and sorry if it's a daft question.I spent 25 years in the mobile industry, from 1994 to 2019. Worked for indies as well as the big networks, in their stores also in contact centres. I also hold a degree in telecoms engineering so I like to think I know what I’m talking about 😂0 -
