Hi all,

I am currently looking around for my 1st ever credit card. Im am 28 and recently married.
I would estimate that i would spend approx £300-£400 per month and of course, this would be paid off in full each month.
I have no clue as to which card would suit me best or give me the best cashback etc...
Please help!

    Forget about "the best" card for the next 12 months. Speak to whichever bank you're with and ask them what they can offer you - that's your best bet.

    Be sure to clear the balance in full and don't miss any payments. Do that for 12 months to establish a credit card history and next year look to shop around for a card with additional benefits.

  • Is it correct to assume that a person who has never had a credit card has no credit history?

    No it's not, but where does that fit in here ?
  • Tesco are doing 0% for 12 months on purchases and you get points with it (double points on Tesco purchases)
