I received a BT offer from Barclaycard for my OnePulse card: 0% until April '09, 2.5% handling fee via Barclaycard cheque. Will I have to pay interest on the handling fee in the following months? I paid the credit card off in full to-day as well as current statement balance, so the account is zeroed. I am expecting a…

Stooze pot safe in ICICI???
Hi all, What with all the banks having a bit of a wobble, I was wondering whether it would be prudent to pay off my C/Card balance now, rather than wait another 2 months when my 0% deal runs out. I know the stooze pot money is safe (approx £10k) in ICICI as less than £50k...but if they went bust I imagine it would take…

Why ever pay off a card?
Hi, unless I'm missing a trick I cant see why you would ever pay off debt on a card... You've got X amount of debt on a card, your 0% deal comes to an end.
