Help me understand APR & Fees

I think the best thing is to just clear the balance in full each month now I have got my head round all the numbers. I, falsely, believed that by incurring interest charge on a nominal amount and clearing it the following month it would allow me to get an higher credit limit but I think I can achieve this by showing I can manage my borrowing by paying in full each month.
I just want to get to the stage where I can get a normal credit card but I can't see that happening for at least another year but hey at least I am on the way

I would strongly recommend this course of action, if at all possible, given the high APR of 49%.0
