in Credit cards
In the mail today came an offer of up to £2,000 credit from credit card company VANQUIS - credit at an annual rate of 49.9% APR variable.
I couldn't stop myself sending a reply saying, "You must be taking the !!!!!!!"
As someone who pays off the full balance every month, I have no use for further cards, but this company should be reported to someone.

I get these all the time, in fact I got one this morning so after seeing your post I opened it, I had been specially selected to recive a credit limit of £2000 at 39.9% I must be better than you


:think: Now heres a thought but I dont think it will catch on, wouldnt it be great that if you were in credit to the card the they paid you that 39.9%. Now that would be an offer I would snap right off them

But as everyone says so many times on here. its provides a service, if you pay it off every month it makes no difference whether is 9.9% or 59.9%0
