in Credit cards
I applied for a Freeserve Marbles Card last year and got 6 months interest free on BT's and purchases. That promotional period is now over and I'm currently paying 12.9% APR on my outstanding debt.
Now Freeserve have become Wanadoo, they have released the Wanadoo Marbles card, again with 6 months at 0%, but only 9.9% APR thereafter.
They have sent me a Wanadoo card now but are still charging me interest at 12.9%
I have transferred the majority of my debt onto an MBNA card now, but I have £1500 left on it. I have a Barclaycard with £950 on it and an EggCard with £500. So I don't really want ANOTHER card if possible.
Any advice? Should I call Marbles and ask for a lower APR?

Yes - no guarantees but there's no reason not to try - having said that - you can beat 9.9% in lots of places - even standard rate is 5.9% on capital oneMartin Lewis, Money Saving Expert.
