Shocking isn't it? As much as its the responsibility of the individual to refuse such offers, surely the banks have to take some blame here.

Good luck Corfu xx

I have to say the relief when phone calls stopped was immense. For the past 5 years we have answered our phone, and without fear. :-)
Its now time to start living and to make some some wonderful memories!

Ditto what Lesley said.

We've only really had the minimum of calls but MBNA have sent their first contact, a text to husbands phone, despite me taking it off the system, saying they had tried contacting us !!!!! er no I don't think they have.

Hi I remember writing to Barclaycard informing them I was entering an IVA. They wrote back and increased my limit by £8000!!!
Lost all respect for them after that!
