I don't know when you last tried, but they seem to have changed all this in the last couple of months.

Their prequalifier is also spot on.
My rejection letter came with a citation of credit score of 785+. I don't regularly put large spend like yours on CCs, only when needed for example international travel. So I didn't put a high number of monthly charge in my online application, maybe this is a factor in their algorithm. I didn't read FT forum before my application, there are quite a number of FT posts in recent months about rejections with cookie cutter wording for reasons that didn't make sense (to the posters).
