Catalogues while on a DMP

Have been on a DMP with Payplan for approx 6 months all going well. Before entering DMP I had a catalogue account which is clear and has been for about a year (this is not part of the DMP as it was clear), but I still have commission on this account. I was wondering whether it's ok to order from the catalogue at all or is it better not to?

Many thanks for your help.

    Personally i wouldn't order from the catalogue, can't you ring/write to them requesting a cheque for the commission which you're owed?

    Some catalogues don't give out cheques, so you have to use the commision with them. If you can't get a cheque spend the commision + a pound or two and pick up a xmas present for someone virtually free.

    Then close the account.

    Many thanks to all who have replied. Think I will try what xbigman suggested and order something to use up my commission.
  • But please dont get sucked into ordreing from the catalogue!! They will be hoping you do and encourge you to order. I suppose it depends how much you have in commission to collect whether its worth risking getting sucked in or not.
