    Got my statement through from Vanquis on Saturday as you do and noticed that they have increased my limit to £1250. It has been exactly 12months since I first got the card with the standard limit of £250. This is my 3rd increase, the second was to £750. HTH someone to know.

    Not sure if I should try and apply for another card...was a bit naughty today and allowed myself to be talked into applying for a House of Fraser card and of course I got turned down. Not gutted about the card but much more so about the mark on my file from the application :(
