    Hi. I may have misunderstood. If you apply, they call you within hours. So I would ring them. The OP should have heard by now.

    But if you read the post above yours....
    I came into this world with nothing and I've got most of it left.

    Hi. My experience of VAQUIS and AQUIS cards is that they call within hours. I open and close these every year and get Quidco money. I would call them. The offices seem to be in Kent (rather than Provident, Bradford) and they are nice to speak to.

    The Quidco thing seems pointless...

    Not when you get £25 off the provy every year. Nothing pointless. So jog on.

    Opening and closing a credit account every year for the sake of £25?

    That’s really not worth it

    People open amazon cards for £20,so it's not surprising. It's not worth it if you consider the credit history. No card held long term and a list of closed accounts all less than 1 year. Might be a concern for main stream lenders, after all it won't say who closed the accounts

    The amount is relative to your own circumstances. £25 to one person could be a lot of money and worth it.

    Hi. Thanks I agree. I can go to B&Q and buy a can of Dulux coloured emulsion and a can of gloss paint and decorate 1 room for free every year. I have done this for years and years. It is worth it. (and my flat always looks fresh!)
