Things that can affect our decision
Your PIN will be delivered by post within five working days.
Your new credit card will follow, arriving within seven working days.
We send these separately for security. If your card doesn’t arrive within two days of your PIN, message us online. If you don’t bank online, give us a call or visit us in branch.
You’ll also receive two emails:
Was it an eligibility check?
Although it’s disappointing to be told you’re not eligible, the good thing about eligibility tools is, to make an eligibility decision, a 'quotation' or 'soft search' is completed. This won’t affect your credit score.
Or a full credit application?
If you submit a full credit application, a full credit search will be completed. If you’re declined, this will affect your credit score.
Multiple applications in a short period can negatively impact your credit score too, which could further affect your chances of being accepted.
Your credit score can impact what cards and interest rates you could get. Learn more about how credit works, how to check and improve your credit score, and more.
If you’d prefer to speak to someone, give us a call or pop into your nearest branch.
At Halifax you can apply online, by phone or by visiting a branch.
