No problemo :smile:

Well I can't say how much history they want you to have for mortgages but apparently an average account age of 36 months or over is a good thing according to Experian.

Oh alright. No doubt it'll probably change many times until I actually look into getting one lol!

I don't actively seek a higher credit limit, but the highest on one card I have is £15,000.

MBNA I think it's £12k - but I'm nowhere near that thank God

Oh wait - Amex is theoretically unlimited.

Is that a charge card or a credit card Trinculo? I don't think they do unlimited credit cards, unless you are a millionaire?!?

£2500. It's my first credit card and I never wanted a high limit, in fact it started something low like £200. It's slowly gone up over two years and just last month or so they raised it again AND they lowered the interest rate. But now I'm working part time I shouldn't really spend that much on it.

One of mine is £12k

Balance is £0 though, I just use it for big purchases and then pay it straight off. I'm not sure what the point of the question is.
