    I've got access to £34,700 over about 4 cards.

    I'm using about £4,500 which is on 0% deal until April 2011.

    As far as I am aware the highest credit card limit that is commercially available (but if of course dependant on status) is 100k :eek:

    Thats the Amex Red BTW

    Red? I've got one of those. I presume you mean the Amex Black (Centurion?)

    Nope. The Centurion is a charge card rather than a credit card and doesn't have a credit limit per-se as it all has to be paid back each month

    (there are centurion card holders who put over a million pounds a month on the card :eek:)

    Centurion is a chargecard. As with all Amex chargecards, supposedly there is no pre-set credit limit. Of course there is one, but they don't tell you what it is.

    NPSSL is essentially based on previous track record of spend and repayment. If more is required it can be manually authorised
