CC and additional card
OK, this is probably a really simple [STRIKE]stupid[/STRIKE] question, but I can't seem to figure it out. I have just been accepted for a 123 credit card (It has just today shown up on the internet banking, I don't have cards for it yet). I applied for a card in my name and an additional one in my partners name. When I…

Am I being silly? ditching CC?
I have a CC which i use daily and pay back in full each month - never late paying. My "normal" bank account sometimes drops to around £100 but I am also putting away money into a savings account for me, and my 2 children. Now, I dont struggle to pay my CC back but it is scaring me the amount i am getting into "debt" each…

Getting a Balance Transfer Deal - Barclaycard
Hi folks. I recently was able to pay a decent chunk of money off a BarclayCard. I was hoping I might then be able to use the credit I now have on that account to to do a balance transfer from a couple of other cards. I thought I might be able to get a 0% deal, and transfer from my Abbey/Santander credit card to the…

Credit card fee by merchant
I have just ordered a new 0% credit card with the plan of buying a car with it and then pay it back over a period of time. The company selling the car said that they charge a 3% fee for using the credit car. I have a few questions 1. What would the fee be for? 2. Whay is it a % and not a flat fee 3. Is there any way to…

Credit/Debit card suspicious payments
I've recently set up a new website and accept payment through Worldpay. Then I noticed the occasional 'warning' from Worldpay, so phoned them to find out about these warnings. It seems, generally, they are from customers who put in a completely different payment address to the cardholder's address and the bank approves it…

Chargeback: Faulty goods?
Hello, I hope you're all well! So, I was wondering if anyone could help? I bought some toy cars off of eBay and they became faulty. The items were fine and now aren't charging, so literally duds. Spoke to the seller, they agreed on a 40% refund. I agreed, couldn't be bothered faffing around. And they've gone dead. Its been…

Bypassing credit card cash fees
Help me MSE! You're my only hope. I ran into an unexpected financial meltdown this month, my car failed its MOT and due to my ineptness I miscalculated how much money I'd have left after I paid the mechanics.

can online store accounts charge an admin fee?
I have several online store accounts. Although they offer credit I prefer to pay at once online for any purchases (just as I clear my Barclaycard monthly). However the payments do not always show up at once on some accounts (I have no idea why as I pay with my Visa card.) Can an online shop charge an additional admin fee…

Aquacard advice
Hi guys, I took out an aquacard a year ago to build up my credit and have managed my account very well- I use it often then pay the entire balance every month. This had led to various credit increases. However due to (as it turns out bad) advice from friends last month I paid of a partial amount (well over the minimum…

Overseas spending with Halifax Clarity
Hey all, hope you've had a good weekend. I've had a Halifax Clarity Credit card for over a year and love it. I use it to do all my spending overseas and for that it's great.

Claiming under section 75?
Towards the end of May 2014 we ordered a new caravan and paid a deposit of £200 by Credit Card over the phone as the dealer was about 100 miles away. When we never received any paperwork for the transaction, we chased up the dealer and they emailed us a copy of the the top page of the order and nothing else. No T & Cs etc.…
