Argos Card help

clements

Hey first post here so be nice, i need a new tv, so i bought and took out an argos card, So i owe 140 quid, and with 27% interest or what it is, it feels like im stuck in a hole? ive got books to sell, raised 40 through music magpie, anything else i could do?

Dont understand your dilemma, youre worried because you owe £140

Pay the £40 this month, and then pay off as much as you can in the next few months.

And if owing such a small amount worries you, cut the card up

Thanks for the reply the card is cut up ,thing is im on the dole, so that limits me plus i have 35 pound a month contract

Go over the the Debt Free Wannabe board and ask the same there. They will help with suggestions for working it out.

Pay £30 per month for six months. Or pay £15 per month for twelve months. Approximately.

What is the question? Your post does not make any sense. If you don't want to pay interest then save up in advance. If you don't want to pay even higher interest in the future make sure you make all minimum payments to your Argos account. What is your minimum payment?

At least you have a credit account. Why not keep your nose clean and maintain it? This may help you receive cheaper credit in the future.

If you are on the dole why are you getting rid of your possessions? Why not use your benefits to maintain your account? £256 per four weeks JSA but can't afford £15 or £20 every fortnight. That does not add up. Please explain what the actual problem is.
