Hoping I won't need to swap again anyway. )% interest runs out on one card in December, and hoping to pay it off then. other card 0% until mid next year.
Then no more cards, or debt. Ever. Mon me

Is it possible to have a credit rating that's too good? Post #82

No it's not ffs
If they just had customers who would always pay up in full, on time and without incurring any interest on the credit, then they'd not be in business.

Of course I didn't look at other peoples... that would be highly illegal I suspect :cool:
I'm sure if any of your friends and associates are reading this, they may now know why you look so smug when you see them.

Not getting them isn't blacklisting, nor lowering your rating. You're not getting them as you won't make them any money.
Which is what i thought all along. Although that doesn't explain why my mate who'd had them for 6 years and hasn't paid a penny in interest because she keeps switching them still keeps getting accepted.
Double standards :thdn: </BLOCKQUOTE>
