    Thanks!

    I spend about £200 per month on petrol and takeaways/meals only. pay off minimum by DD and then send one or two payments via bill payment option of say £100 then another £80 toward the end of the month so in effect I have about £20 left each month and pay about £2 interest which is fine for the method i'm testing.

    With citicard I just pay the minimum and with BOI I clear it in full so between my 3 cards i'll soon see which works best between paying in full/min payment or mixture of both with a balance outstanding each month so they are making money from me....

    does that make any sense? lol, it does in my head but trying to type it is harder! :confused:

    LOL- Makes perfect sense. I wanna do whatever i can to get increases on all my cards. Thanks for the tip. :T

    You're really on the ball with all this stuff :T

    Hey Brian.

    I was gonna call, but when i checked their website for a contact number, i saw they also offer loans. So stupidly i applied online for it, and lo, was rejected :rolleyes:.

    So no i haven't called them :cool:

    the loan would be with hbos and not affect catalouge.you can still phone them.
