    Well if I don't get the money by tomorrow I'll lose a £300 deposit, so this is my only option at the moment.

    Well BC seem to of changed their method of allocations now. So higher interest balances are paid off first.

    Allocation of payments

    If you do not pay the total outstanding balance in full by the payment date, we will apply the amount you do pay to reduce higher interest rate balances before lower interest rate balances.

    For further details, please refer to your credit card terms and conditions.
