    Obviously posters here know different solicitors to the ones I know. I have never been offered the facility to pay anything to a solicitor by credit card.
    These days they are even reluctant to take cash because of money laundering regulations.


    They are few and far between in my experience but there are some around who do.

    I stand by every word I said - Sorry if it was not what you wanted to hear.
    If you have funds available to put down a deposit why even ask about getting cash off credit cards?

    because as long as the money is in an interest earning account it's making me money, and as long as the charges for putting the deposit on a credit card are less than this it makes good financial sence.

    Thanks to everyone who's posted helpfull replies, it's given me a few things to check out but reasured me it is possible and others are doing it.
    Don’t ask what the world needs. Ask what makes you come alive, and go do it.
