Your total's looking pretty fine jwil! I only have another couple of hundred pounds coming towards debts this month, so I have to decide what to do with my cap one card, which will have about £600 or so left on it. Virgin are offering me a nice 0% BT deal, which would be brilliant as then I'd have only one CC - but the transfer fee is 5%! Ridiculous.0

I'd leave it Sarah and pay it off first and do min on others...you usually pay off a fair whack each month so the interest will probably be less:)Debt free and busy treating myself:)
No more toiletries/make up until I've used what I've got stashed since Jan 2011, graduated October 2012. Restocked Dec 13..damn those sales0 -
I guess i need to find out what interest rate it's going to convert to. I;ve been doing min on the other card for a while now; we just haven't got that much extra coming in until August, when we have a massive £1k of gigs coming - but by then we'll have had three months' interest to pay. Will do some calculations I guess...0

OK, it looks like I will be paying only £9 a month max so you're right seaside Dreamer, I can just leave it. Feels so wrong though - I am usually so on top of my balance transfers!0
