    Could try spending less and not just making minimum payment.

    Last month the interest charged was £343.91 and the minimum payment due this month is £348.91 so there is no way I will ever clear the debt.

    So you have about 12k outstanding on this Virgin card.

    I have other cards that are full and have applied for more recently that have been declined so moving the debt elsewhere isn't an option.

    And you have other cards which are also maxed out and probably have another not inconsiderable amount outstanding.

    Your creditors obviously think, in your case, bankruptcy is just round the corner.

    Maybe you should consider bankruptcy as well.
