I have an overdraft of some £1,500 which I am trying to pay off. I am new to this site and Martins advice so am doing the Budget and am going to change suppliers for gas, electric, phone etc, so that will help. I dont have any credit cards anymore as I cleared them a few years ago and cut them up, but was wondering about getting a 0% interest one to clear the overdraft with, and then ive the year to pay off the card without any interest. Is this right, and who do you advise?

Yes that's a good idea.
There's loads of 0% credit cards out there.
A useful list is at https://www.stoozing.com click on tables.Happy chappy0 -
