Not real familiar with Barclays. Maybe others will join in.

wait 2 years and apply again. when they auto-deny you send in a good letter explaining why they should accept you.
no amount of HUCA'ing will help you get reinstated if they deemed you a credit risk. (unless it was truly a mistake...)

They don't just look at your actual cedit, they look at you overall whether you're an asset or liability to the company. FICO isn't everything. Cycling your cedit limit regularly can be a severe red flag.

Nothing new there. Read the old DDMS post on what not to do.
Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.

True, I just figured it was a good beginners resource. Well, up to the mods now.
