Barclaycard Credit Limit v Others

Hi,

At long last got my b/c after waiting three weeks.

The limit they gave me is laughable, I would probably have preffered if they had refused me, my great 12 months @ 0% is limited to 90% of £280!!!!!

What a joke!

1.Income £24k
2.No debt other than 0% cards & mortgage
3.£280
4.MBNA £22k, Lloyds £12.5k, FD £10k, Easymoney £10k, Marbles £6k, Beneficial £6k, Cahoot £8k, Halifax £5k, Egg £8k & Morgan Stanley £3k

Have recently closed citi cards £10K, good credit ratings as all card have been taken out over a number of years, never apply for more than 3 cards a year!

Needless to say will be cutting card up straight away and sending back to barclays! >:( >:( >:(

Hi,

That may be the case however a £280 limit is still pitifull, I would have actually preffered a decline.

Barclays are clearly not wanting to give much free money away as looking at previous posts it's not just me who has been given a low limit.

I have actually called Barclaycard to cancel the card anyway.
