max interest free periods
I have just got a NW cash back card and have expressed (on here) my annoyance of realising I only have 46 days interest free period. Just got my statement today 1st June, payment due 11th June, please allow 7 working days for cheques to clear. There are only 7 working days available to me, let alone trying to allow them 7…
Where to put my Stooze Pot!!
Hi, Just started the stoozing phase of my new money plan after moving all my expensive debt onto Texaco (3.9%) and Barclaycard (1.9%). Anyway I opened my A&L Premier Account and their savings account for my stooze pot of Egg (1.9% until October). Now A&L have offered me £10k on their 9 months 0% offer and obviously happy…
I feel such a fool!
Hi, I thought I was pretty clued up when it came to money but today I got caught out by what is surely one of the biggest cons of all time. It's my fault for not reading the micro-print properly but I still feel cheated. Basically I took out a Lloyds TSB Mastercard with 6 months interest free on Balance Transfers (charged…
Who Owns Which CC ?
I can't find the article, can you help please?
CC Cheques.
A quick question to the MSE massive about credit card cheques. I wanted to pay for a holiday using a LLoydstsb card but the villa owner doesnt take cards. I have some CC cheques at a rate of 5.9% for the life of the ammount which i can pay into my A/C and then send a personal cheque to pay for the holiday. Does this seem…
How does this stand up as a plan?
I have posted similar to this before, but I am now a lot closer to making a decision. In December, I will be paying off my mortgage. I will only have £13K outstanding over 5 years. I currently pay about £250 per month but I can afford to pay around £400, so I would like to reduce the term to 3 years. I'm currently paying…
Good payment help and advice
I applied for a lot of credit cards and only got one from Capital one!. I am nearly debt free and only owe a few companies money, but they will be paid off by the end of the year. My credit rating is really awful and I’ve only got my self to blame, but I want to change all that and improve my rating. I’ve got my Capital…
Barclaycard GOLD??
What ever happened to Barclaycard Gold? :confused:
Egg reduces 0% BT intro rate to 6 months :(
Disappointing. The 2% fee (max £50) still applies too.
Skycard
Sky has invited me to apply for their Master Card. Under their scheme, £s spent on the card accrues SkyPoints (1 for 1). The SkyPoints can be used to pay for the monthly substriction, Sky Box Office films or Prem+ football matches. I think that the "cashback" is equivalent to ca 1.2%. Has anyone gone down this route & are…
Barclaycard
Well that was a waste of time.......existing customers; 0% for three months, 2% fee no max or 5.9% for life of balance...no fee.
