in Credit cards
;D
Just wanted to say thanks to everyone for being an inspiration to me, only just started work 3 weeks ago, and I've just requested a £1900 balance transfer from virgin to my bank!
Ok so its not much, but I've got to start somewhere!
(and the other £3500 in interest free graduate overdrafts helps too
)
So thanks to everyone, especially MLC

A word of caution.
Stoozing is OK but if as a result you spend more money than you otherwise would you can build up trouble for the future.
The Sainsbury Card is good 0% purchase for one year. Each month the money you would have used to clear the debt on the card should actually be paid into a Stoozing high interest savings account.
Virgin is an SBT card. It will do what you have asked................................I have put my clock back....... Kcolc ym0 -
