Thankyou MBNA ! 
Got two accurist watches in the post today. Was not expecting them since I had read elsewhere that I was supposed to actually spend some cash rather than just do balance transfers.
SPECS
1. Signed up to the MBNA card in late Sept
2. Did the Balance transfers out in Mid Oct (no charges).
3. Got 1st statement last week.
yet to pay a penny
Anyway mum and dad will be happy

When my parents pass away I won't be trying to arrange a funeral at no cost to me.
Looks like you will be.0 -
WELL .. hopefully not for a long time
So whats wrong with getting insurance to cover eventualities, thats what its there for !

I won't need to, as my parents pre-paid for their funerals a few years ago. Morbid maybe, but nothing like a bit of forward planning and I'm sure the loss of interest on the money the paid will far be outweighed by the difference in cost then V the equivalent cost in the future.How do I add a signature?0
