in Credit cards
Probably a very easy answer to this...but one I'd like to know!
If someone had a minimum payment of £50 on a standard status credit card, what would the approximate outstanding balance be?
I know this varies a bit between card providers, but its a status card and I'd expect the interest rate to be typical.
Experts, what do you think?

if minimum payment was
1% then the balance would be 50/1% =5,000
2% the then the balance would be 50/2% = 2,500
if 3% the balance 1,666
of course some cards don't charge quite like that0 -
In the main it is charged at between 2 and 2.5% it would depend on who the provider is - for example Halifax is 1% of the total owed, but Barclays is either 2% or 2.5%. The total owed must be over £1000 though.0
