Get the Lippy out! I have a Little Black card

Oh no!

I went on the HBOS website to apply for a credit card, and clicked on "The Little Black Card".. But, on recieving said card today, I find the welcome letter headed "Welcome to the Womens card from Bank of Scotland"

Womens Card?? Last time I looked i was a man... so pass me some lippy, some foundation and I will go crazy with my new "Little Black Number"

Watch this card. When the 0% deal is over, purchases attract interest immediately (i.e. no 56 day free period). It's a bit of a nasty one.

I dident realise that - I just got it for the 0% introduction to save me some cash.

On another note, does anyone know if the "Card Protection" my CC issuers keep trying to flog me are really neccesary? Surely If i lose my cards, then it's simple enough to make a few phone calls and cancel them? Why would I need to pay someone £15 - £20 a year for someone to do that for me?

Exactly! Why would you? No reason at all.
