    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 :(

    thats god news!!:T i have had no increases since i got my aqua, i have done a few things with it, payed in full some months then did a month at minimum, then minimum plus a bit just to vary it a bit as not sure what they like you to do. although they mucked my dd up this month which meant i was late paying, only knew as they rang me!! i had given new bank details over phone muppets had cancelled old one but forgot to set new one up!! so looks like i may never see an increase!!:eek:

    Going to hold out on applying for anything for at least 6 months as I want to buy a new car soon and dont want to have too many searches lowering my score.

    Guy's, I know you are all hyper about getting all of these new credit cards, just try and be careful - we are in a pretty bad recession at the moment and it is getting worse, more companies going under again today, just don't get caught out with unemployment and loads of credit card debt, you have all worked hard to re-build your credit ratings.

    End of Lecture. ;)

    Regards
