** We decide whether to offer you a credit card based on your credit score and whether you meet our business lending criteria.
** See what information is held about you at the credit reference agency we use For a small fee, Experian can provide you with a Statutory Credit Report.
** This can help you understand the information we’ve used and you can check everything is correct.
