Bank balance / credit amount for ILR (5 yr on WP) ?

Two questions please

1) Is their any min. requirement for "savings" in one's current account and "credit" on credit cards to gain ILR (5 yr on WP)?

2) Do we need to show all bank account statements / all credit card statements or the only one where pay is coming ?

Thanks

I understand that I didnt entered the country in Sept 2004 (which is starting point of my qualifying period ) as I was already here from sept 2003.

Comment from someone with recent ILR application would be v helpful.
Its the first question in section 6 of SET(O).

I think HO is discouraging people to get appts. and send applications via post and HO are not giving out any new appts. Is there any one who knows some one who ACTUALLY got an appointment in 20-30 a...
