Halifax credit cards

Ok, I recieved my credit history from the ICB today - and everything is perfect , all payments marked as up to date or account cleared off.

It does show that Tesco credit cards ran a check - so if they saw my good credit history why on earth was I refused???
 
How long to get Halifax Card?

Applied for card in Feb. Got approval notice in March with a form to fill in. Sent that back, got a call today looking for ID copy and original utility bill (why did they not look for that in March?) and the girl said they may come back looking for bank statements.

I know the card is a good deal and I expect application levels are high but 2 months so far, it's crazy! When I applied for my current card (AIB) I had it within a fortnight of application.
 
I must say I didn't have much difficulty getting a credit card from them. I got it within 2 to 3 weeks and the information they required wasn't amy different to what other institutions would want. They matched by limit which I have with Bank Of Ireland.
