Which Credit Card to pay off 2k of debt!?

Hi again,
I did post something similar to this in the Credit Card forum but had little reply.
What I would like help with is:
I have around 2k of debt and plan to pay this off with a credit card allowing me to pay this off at my own (faster) speed, the question is Which card should i apply for?, someone did mention the M&S card, but are there other better options?
(sorry if i may be repeating myself) :rolleyes:

Hi
I'd recommend you look at Martin's articles on Credit Cards, as it lists the best 0% cards around the at the moment. If you're going to pay it off within 6 months I think there might be a no fee one around. Anything longer and you're looking at 2% fees, some with a max of £50.
Hope that helps.Back on the DFW Wagon:
CC - £3,300 on 0% til 04/2020
CC - £4,500 on 0% til 02/2019
Loan - £12,063.84 as at 4/1/180 -
Hi,
What kind of time scale have you set yourself? Is getting a CC really your best option? Obviously, if it's in high interest now, then it should be moved, perhaps if you plan to pay it off over a long time then a low life of balance card would be better? Ask said, Martin's article on CCs is invaluable!
