    Yes
    (providing the card company don't write to you to close the account - which can occasionally happen after a BT as can them reducing your limit following a BT)

    you will have a CC with a zero balance; i.e. it's been paid in full

    whyever wouldn't you be able to use it?

    Can I find out my credit score?
    You do not have a single credit score or rating. Different organisations take different information into account when working out your credit score and may have different scores for different products. (Kindly from Experian)
