Recommend a good conveyancer who accept credit card for their fees?

In the spirit of MSE and to spread the considerable cost of buying our first home we'd like to pay our conveyencer fees on a 0% card so we can pay them over 12 months. We've got the 0% card but none of the conveyancers we've approached so far will accept anything other than cheque/bank transfer for their fees.

Can anyone suggest a good conveyancer who will accept payment of their fees by credit card?

Thanks!
C

    I know I've definitely paid the initial disbursement fees over the phone with a card. Whether that was debit or credit, I can't remember.

    And I've dealt with a few members of the team there as well. Professional, swift and take no prisoners!

    If you did a balance transfer to your bank account you'd only incur a small fee for the transfer. It's not free, but it makes it easier.

    If I had the capability to insert a WOOOOOSH sign here I would. I know exactly what you are saying and totally agree.

    I would not be selecting my conveyancer on this basis, I know that, any problems incurred during this stressful process - will cost a lot more than potentially paying the cash advance fee from a credit card..
