Halifax Mortgage Credit
The Halifax has just credited my Mortgage Account with £1110.00 saying its a goodwill payment because their original mortgage offer may not have explained certain details as clearly as it could have, relaiting to a cap that limits interest. I find it strange that they are giving me this amount at all, without me even…

Balance Transfer Q

It's been paid off every month in full and I want to continue this pattern and still have a chunk of cash left over christmas. It's currently at 75% of the limit and I won't be doing any more spending on it. I have a BC initial at 0…

Vanquis - Don't EVER accept old customers
Just thought I'd share the following with you. If you close any of the cards offered by Vanquis down and then want to re-apply for one of their cards, you can't ... EVER?!

I remember reading somewhere (hopefully!) that it is possible to claim back cash from credit cards if an item bought is subsequently reduced in price in the next 30 days. Does anyone know if that is the case. Thanks

Keep getting refused!
I'm a student trying to get a credit rating. I've applied for my own bank (Halifax) credit card- refused. Decided to try some beginner credit cards- namely capital one, granite and aqua. All refused. How can I get a credit rating? It's really concerning! How do people initially get them? :/

Newbie Tesco Clubcard credit card question...
I have a Tesco Clubcard credit card account which I service online, without a problem. They send me vouchers and I put the vouchers in a draw. I've just noticed one of them expires on Wednesday. It seems the best way to use these is to go online and change them for a "reward" rather than use them in a shop. Though I can…

Warning - beware quick repayment
I took out an M&S Credit Card, because it offered a life of balance rate of 4.9%. I transferred about 6K from another card and am paying it off slowly. I try not to use the card for purchases because the rate is 20.9% However, as a result of a mix up I paid £1,500 for a reception for my daughter's wedding on the card. As…

Is it worth getting a credit card?

Finding the owner of card off receipt details
Hello This is rather ambiguous due to the value of what has been found. We have a certain high value item with receipt in our care. We have a receipt for a debit card for the shop from where it has been purchased. The shop has not been helpful to us saying that they cannot trace the high value items owner because they…

Fairfx Card
Hi I'm not sure if i'm posting this in the right place as it's a top-up card, not a credit card. Anyway, i got a Fairfx card ages with the intention of using it to pay for Ryanair flights.
