    Hi, linux44.

    I honestly don't know how many Current Account's you can have.
    You've got 4 more than me

    I always think, the more Accounts and Cards you have, then your debt could be high ?(maybe wrong, you could be rich for all I know)

    I think it would have a bad effect on your Credit report.

    But then, who am I. The guy without a Current Account.:grin:


    Regards.

    Scott.

    Any advice I give is honest and in good faith.

    you can have as many current accounts as you like - I have 2, a Current Plus with Natwesticon and a Premier with Alliance and Leicester. (No debt on either of them!!! And Im not rich either ) I think the only restriction is if you have basic accounts - youre only allowed one. But with normal current accounts, you can have as many as you like.

    Same goes with credit cards - if you keep up the repayments on them and dont default, your credit file should be good. And you can legally have as many credit cards as you want - I've heard of cases of people with 17 or 18 credit cards

    So dont worry Linux, you arent breaking the law

    If you have a load of credit cards, this may affect future lending, even if you have nothing on them. In effect this is approved credit facilities, you could be sitting with £50k of available credit that you could spend at any time...in the current climate, credit providers will freakout at that.

    No problems Linux.

    Thats very true about having a shedload of credit cards, but I dont really think this applies to having say 3 cards if they are all in use.

    My mum has about 5 credit cards and people are still falling over themselves to give her more credit... I suppose it depends on the individual, but I certainly dont think having 17 or 18 credit cards is a good move... but if you had that many, why on earth would you WANT more credit?? (unless you were a millionaire, but again if you had all that cash why do you need that much credit???)

    Is going off on a tangent as usual... boredom does funny things to me

    If the bank are happy to give you more than one basic account than thats ok but as I understood it you werent allowed to have more than 1 basic account at different banks... cos when I was trying to escape the clutches of my Nasty West Step account nowhere else would give me an account as i already had one...

    If thats true, it must be a new rule as last year I had basic accounts with more than one bank (got rid of one which I no longer needed).
