First Direct (wine offer in March)
Re. First Direct's offer of a fee-free balance transfer for 6 months (at 2.9% pa) on a new credit card (plus 6 bottles of wine thrown in): http://www.firstdirect.com/creditcards/credit_card_summary.shtml Is there a trick when timing balance transfers with FD, so that the six months is more like seven? I seem to recall that…
Abbey card min payment double check
Hi all, Just looking to set up my 2nd stooze card and want to double check that I've understood the min payment on this card.

Virgin Money - maximising the stooz
I've just discovered a "loophole" in the Virgin Money stooz that may help others. The policy with VM is you can stooz BT up to 95% of your credit limit but that limit includes the 3% BT fee.

Credit limits
How big can I expect my credit limit to be as a percentage of my gross salary? Is there a rough rule of thumb for credit limits in the same way that mortgage lenders will lend roughly 3-5x salary? I have several credit cards, but would like to increase the limit on some of the lower cards. As CC companies ask you to…
Peace of mind, 1st stooze!
OK, I've read the article over and over. Got my Egg Money Card and recieved a new Barclaycard with 0% BT for 14mth and 2.5% handing fee so all set, well not quite... What confuses me is that the description is as follows, 'Ask your 0% balance transfer card to do a £3,000 balance transfer from Egg Money.' But it appears…
