hi,
who will offer the biggest limit on a 0% purchase credit card please?
m & s or sainsburys offer 0% on purchases for 10 months, halifax or rbs have it for 9 months, but which one do you think will offer the biggest limit? no ccjs etc.good credit score. (already have a tesco cc, they have 0% for 12 months but i use this card, zero balance and want another to keep just for kitchen)

its for a kitchen you see, and plan to pay it off within a year or so.

cheers !!

    We're slowly working our way through 0% purchases cards, so we can offset the money against our mortgage. So far we've each had M&S and Tsesco 0% cards.

    Tesco gave the best limit - £6500
    M&S was about half that.

    But Tesco was 12 months 0% (plus added bonus of clubcard vouchers earned), whereas M&S was only 10 months.

    Need to check which is the next best one, as need to get a new one soon.
