    Get yourself a cheap loan and pay off all the cards (then cut them up). The interest on these store cards is very high compared to loans.

    I dont know the answer to your general query but it may be worth knowing that Next accounts can be paid by a credit card payments so you can use a 0% (purchases) deal on a credit card to reduce your interest while you pay it off.
