in Credit cards
I was just wondering, i currently have a virgin credit card, i am trying to transfer my balance to a 0% interest card to pay it off quicker and although i have a credit card already and a husband in full time employment no one will accept me to transfer my balance. Anyone know who will please let me know!!!!

Roll on spring, I hate the cold weather:(

I'm guessing that you've applied for quite a few already? This will effect your chances too now. Check the articles/info on 'credit rating' and 'check your credit'- blue links at top of page.
All cards have their own scoring system, and most ask for your income. as a full-time mum this probably isn't much. Some cards however only ask for household income, so you can add your husbands income to it-plus anyone else in the house??. The one that comes to mind is https://www.gemoney.co.uk, they're currently offering 12months 0% with 2.5% BT fee.
hope that helps.0 -

Do you still have the Halifax card?
If so give them a ring as you could perhaps do a reverse balance transfer back to them.0
