[QUOTE=Never-In-Doubt;191162]Hiya

See no sign of you since you got approved, I do hope you've not went on a mad spending spree with your new £250 / £500 credit card :lol

:beer[/QUOTE]

Ashamed to say I haven't been on for a while. Consider my knuckles well and truly rapped!

I am being very careful to make sure I use my card and then pay it all off :angel :angel:angel
Oh, and I got £500. Feelign slightly smug as my OH applied (well they hounded him until he said yes) and he only got £250....

Well done :beer

Actually Vanquis pestered both of us until we gave in! Once you've expressed an interest they just don't let you go.

Both of us have defaults under 3 years so I was suprised... will keep using the card and paying it off and see how long it takes them to up their limit. After all, they've doubled Swanny's :sunglasses

After 4 months they usually increase the limit, they did with mine.

Re: Sub-Prime Credit

How do you sign up for JD Williams "account" as recommended, i hit the "spread the cost" link for personal account, filled it all in. It said congrats on being registered customer etc. Available to spend shows zero and if i try to shop it asks for payment card?

If i go back to "spread the cost" its gone, there seems to be nowhere to apply for an account? :-/
