yeah i know. maybe i should sue CBA, like that guy who sued Crown for making him spend a few million on a gambling binge.

Card minimum was $4k. i asked for over that and got almost 4x the card minimum.

if you go for other credit, including home loans it will reduce your serviceability significantly.

 

Significantly is a big call

Ill let Hamish answer this

But didn't effect me at all and i just refinanced last month

They look at the full amount of the CC being serviced at a fairly high rate, close to 20%.

at $27k that's $450 just in interest each month.

So even though the limit is unused they assume repayments are to be made as if it has been drawn in full?

 

Well that's intradasting

What difference does it make if you don't actually use the limit?
Effects nobody
How do you pay extra interest to a bank if you haven't drawn the funds?

When applying for home loan your credit card limit is used against you in your borrowing power. The smaller the limit the more you can mortgage

Any line of credit facilities are considered as if fully drawn, as you have the ability to do so without notice

I use my Amex 95% of the time....don't know where you're trying to shop but they probably serve coffee in a f**kin jar so wouldn't expect much from them..

As for credit card limits, it's really not an issue. If you're going for a loan you decrease the limit, get the loan, increase the limit again. The cba lender chick did it for me off her own back... Literally zero effort on my part. And I mean literally in the true sense of the word, not literally in the way every f**king idiot uses it these days

f**king LOL almost spat my coffee out to that first line 

I find that it's accepted probably half the time I would like to use it... and even when it's available it's often not contactless.

getting a card out of my wallet is so 2015

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
