Looking for credit card to pay off overdraft.

in Credit cards
Hi

I need a 0% credit card that I can transfer my overdraft onto. Tried Barclaycard but they only take transfers from other c.cards.

Ideally it would be 12 months interest free and don't really mind if there is a small transfer fee.

Any advice?

Thanks in advance.

    I did mine with MBNA and am so pleased that I did!
    You just need to make sure that you budget properly and don't go back into the overdraft on top of the credit card debt you will have.
    Overdrafts transferred to MBNA £953.40/£4279.80 Car insurance (on CC) £461.98/£751.98 :mad: Bank of mum and dad £1500/£5000
    Total debt repaid £2915.38/£10,031.78 (29%):T Owed [STRIKE]£10,031.78[/STRIKE][STRIKE] £7400[/STRIKE] £7116.40 Pay off as much as you can in 2011 challenge £1127.60/£4000

    Tesco Credit Card is also one to consider. If accepted place an order for Sterling Travellers Cheque (1.25% Commission), interest free for 13 months, and deposit into your bank account.
