in Credit cards
So over Christmas I applied for mbna and hsbc 32 month 0 percent cards.
The mbna card came today.It is only 0% on bt ,mt and purchases upto april 2019. And 27% there after. And only £1000 initial limit.
But what is more interesting is at the time of application
I was not on E/ROLL
My only two open acoounts were at my old address that i wasnt on E/R either.
And although my expieran was clean there was 3 recent searches on it.
Call credit and equifax were showing 2 CCJ's etc.
They hard searched exp and equifax.
Hsbc also hard searched all tree cra's .I have sent back singned paperwork to hsbc and that does show the 32 month offer but as yet the card hasnt come .
Thought this may interest some of you on sub prime cards, because marbles gave me a 450 limit at 49% .

TL;DR op has bad credit history, got approved for a prime 0% interest free credit card on a lower term offer. Also waiting to hear back from 2nd card company.
Good job OP now get yourself on the electoral roll. Use the card and spend wisely, pay it back in full every month. Then you can keep improving your credit history.

So to my surprise HSBC card and pin came today.
32 month balance transfer 0% and 18.9 % there after. £5500 limit ?
post office advised me to check my file before applying for any more credit and marbles gave 49.9 % apr.
95 percent on PO and hsbc eligibility checker.
I will use them wisely just very very surprised .
All loan checkers gave me 20% chance prior to these applications.if you do it its done0 -

If a fee is payable, you'll need to pay it, regardless of how quickly you repay.0
