OK, it does (very faintly) glow in the dark. I thought it might be an elaborate hoax :joy:

Is there a global upper limit for credit on Flex? I know that different people have different limits, but what’s the upper limit?

Last April. Doubt it’s Changed

Interesting. Do they increase limits if asked? I’ve not really used Flex much because it’s all been virtual until now. Also higher limits is better for mortgages… maybe?

You can request an increase in the app through manage flex card area

That would be something I’d want if I’m going to ditch the S&M Rewards card. So, fingers crossed.

What’s the lowest you can flex? I think it’s £3, £1a month makes sense. I know i can spread £1.60 over 3 months on Tymit if I really wanted to

Sounds spicy - where do you get one of these cards?

Interesting question now there’s a physical card. I assume if you make a <£3 purchase it’ll only offer “Pay in full on next payment date”.

What a time to be a Flex user :eyes: if that happens I’ll ditch Barclaycard (but not before upgrading across all their card designs :laughing:)

You can Flex down to £0.01…

But the minimum monthly repayment amount per transaction is £3 - so if you Flex a £2 transaction it’ll have to be payed back in 1 instalment for a £5 transaction it’ll have to be payed back in 1 or 2 instalment for example.

Goes back to a conversation I had with a colleague in the mid 90s on a business trip to the Smoke.

I suggested we split up at lunchtime and when pressed explained my plans to visit an S&M shop. She looked puzzled and pointed out that there was a branch by St Peter’s Church in Nottingham, close to the office.

Had to think about it… “No Deb. S&M. Not M&S.”

I’ve referred to them as S&M ever since.
