    I agree with immoral angel. 105 is a rubbish reduction in any case. what with quidco and loads of online discount codes, I dont know why you would bother.

    Theres no dollar sign on piece of mind

    Online discounts which require a card for payment don't forget.

    Most accept electron cards. You can only spend what you have and it goes out straight away and doesn't gain interest.

    If you have a co-op account otherwise it's a pre-pay card.

    What's the best (cheapest) pre-pay card you can get?
  • I don't have a co-op account and I have an electron card?? Not sure what you mean.

    my advice would be cut it up and forget that you ever had it. Once you start on the road of using it for special offers who knows where it might lead to. Get rid of the temptation and use cash if you have to!

    Pretty much every bank I've ever deal with has either done an electron or switch/solo card. Currently banking with Nationwide and Woolwich who both do electron.
