Do you mean 3 cards with with 15k in total?

The most I have had is £27k but I am hoping to pass that when my MINT comes through any day now!

I have heard of people with 100k on cards, but that is probably from the good old days a few years back when this game was much easier.

yes total of 15k
my colleague is now running about 30k , does this kill your credit rating?

someone out there must be running 100k!!! 450 a month interest for nothing !!!!

Stooz pots over £100K are rare but have been done. Mine was at £93K until a few weeks ago when a couple of cards ended their 0% periods. The average stooz pot on the stoozing website is about £27,000. For a view of the spread take a look at this poll

I 'stooz for 2', and our stooz pot reached £72K last year. At it's peak, it was generating £237 per month net interest.

It depends on how you get the cash out

Cash withdrawals and 95% of credit card cheques are very costly ways to get money from a credit card. You need to find accounts that allow a Balance Transfer from a bank account to a credit card. This is known as a super-balance -transfer (SBT) to stoozers. For more info, see the MSE links above about SBTs and stoozing or visit the stoozing website.

48k was my personal best, but now down to about 28k. A bunch of cards expired, I have moved to a rented property, and I went after the Smile free wine and Barclays free money promotion. So I am holding off for a while until my credit status repairs itself.

Including my and the other half's buy-to-let flats, I can show a net income of about 110k, so I am optimistic that I can ratchet back up to that sort of level soonish.
