presumably other Natwest/RBS Credit Cards) spending marked as ‘pending’ is immediately
added to the balance amount as soon as the purchase is made? It used to be listed as ‘pending’ and only appeared in the balance once the transaction had cleared –…

Hello All, I have got one credit card from Virgin Money, which I've had since July 2022. I have always paid the balance off in full, so I was surprised this month to get an interest charge of £74.27.

Interest Charges Calculation
I feel like I have been overcharged interest but don't seem to be getting any definitive answers from Barclaycard about it. My credit limit is £5k, I never exceed that. I have a 0% promotional balance of £590. Therefore I should only be charged interest on an amount of £4410 or below. My monthly interest rate is 2.5688%,…

I've asked on the providers live chat and they said I won't incur any more interest charges but they've shown me before that some of them don't know what they are talking about so here's the scenario.

HSBC Letter - We are clearing your outstanding balance!
I've had a letter from HSBC today that says 'as a gesture of goodwill, we are clearing the outstanding balance on your credit card'. Although it falls into the 'too good to be true' category, they are not asking for anything, it's simply a statement that my direct debit will cease on 29th February. I only have one credit…

Have lenders changed their eligibility criteria?
I took out a 0% balance transfer card around 2 years ago. Nothing has changed much, if anything, my salary has gone up, we've lived in our house longer and the amount I want to borrow has gone down. Trying to find a card to transfer again and everywhere is saying I'm not eligible. Anyone know why please?

Refunds and how they're credited

NatWest no longer crediting transactions that have been scammed
Once when I had some fraudulent transactions I called the Credit Card company and they removed the transactions. This time I had a small fraudulent transaction, where I had been tricked into giving my card details. It was a dubious website offering no services.

Balance transfer and money transfer on one card?
Hello, I am looking to consolidate a loan and some credit card debt onto one card that has an 18 month 0% interest offer. I am not sure if this is possible to do on one card so I thought I'd ask here if anyone knows of a card that offers both of these? I thought it would be better than taking out 2 cards, one for a balance…
