Does your new 0% credit card give credit card cheques as 0% as well?
Which card have you got? If it's 0% until next July it sounds like it's either Barclaycard or Mint. If it's Mint I think you have an easy solution to your problem.
Post more details, including amounts and other credit cards you hold, and someone will be able to offer more detailed advice.0 -

Are other store-cards like that too? Eg Debenhams?0

Yes - you cannot transfer a balance from a store card to a credit card - they are two completely different products.0
