I have my first credit card, Halifax Clarity (I'm only 28, it's taken me this long lol), which I used to buy loads of stuff in the Adidas sale, taking full advantage of their excellent free returns policy. As suggested by Martin, the card is paid off in full each month via direct debit (on 20th of the month). I intend to…

Aqua Credit Card
This morning a letter came through my door from Aqua including an application for their credit card. I had a quick look to see if they were offering something that might be of use to me.

Lloydstsb Credit Card Services
I cannot believe I am writing this. LLOYDSTSB ARE FANTASTIC. Long story short- in response to my request to make 0% balance transfer, they mistakenly did it twice-in fact they were actually trying to a third time. It has taken a week but GARY has refunded the two balance transfer fees and given me £50 AND given me a longer…
