    Hi all,

    I've been saving money like mad this month, and hopefully will have a couple of hundred to throw at my cards.

    I've also had great news today, I've been accepted for my 1st 0% card, after trying for 3-4 over the past 3 years (considering my card is almost up to its limit I'm v pleased). My rate is only 6.9% on my current card, but I've worked out that I will save a £150 in interest over the 20month deal after my £70 fee. YAY!

    Will update with exact figures next Thursday (payday)
    Credit Card 6.9% - £0/£2800
    Graduate OD 19.9% - [STRIKE]£1000[/STRIKE] Paid off Sept 11 :beer:
