Sainsbury's to Natwest transfer
My Sainsbury's Bank credit card is moving to Natwest. The Natwest website says that I should have been invited to register for online banking during September (whether by email or letter).

Anyone else had their Creation credit card cancelled without explanation?
For the past 8-10 years I've been the happy user of a Creation credit card which I took out because, at the time, it offered foreign currency transactions without the usual 2.75-3% exchange fee (and thank you again Martin & team for alerting me to it way back then). I've always paid the card off in full every month, and to…

I have had other credit cards previously and the APR has never gone up by that much. Theres a button to repay the minimum at my current APR and close the…

Sainsbury's Bank sold to Natwest
https://www.about.sainsburys.co.uk/news/latest-news/2024/20-06-2024-sale-of-core-banking-business-to-natwest-group Unlike Barclays purchase of Tesco Bank, it doesn't seem this deal includes ongoing usage of the Sainsbury's name, so Sainsbury's Credit Card customers will become Natwest (or I suppose maybe RBS or Ulster…

Co-op bank phone lines
I have been on hold to the Co-op Bank 0345 600 6000 number now for TWO HOURS and SEVENTEEN MINUTES and counting. It is simply inconceivable that there are enough people waiting who are prepared to wait for more than two hours. I can only assume there are no staff at the other end. This really is a deplorable example of…

Buying a "new" Car...CC advice please
Originally, I was simply going to use savings and pay off instantly. However, I am thinking of getting a 0% interest CC, and paying it off monthly? Would I get accepted for £7000, income of £85k?

"Ethics" of credit card spending
Morning, Are there any ethical or moral concerns when it comes to credit card spending? If you use reward cards for example and do all your spending on these (paying back in full each month of course) is there any net negative either to yourself, or the greater society? Thanks

Credit Card & PayPal - Cash or Purchase?
Hi All, Hope you can help. Does anyone have experience of sending money to friends and family via paypal from a credit card - and whether it was treated as a purchase, or as a "Cash-Alike" transaction? I've asked paypal and they've basically ignored my message, and I can't call. Their FAQ just says "We don't charge cash…
