They have accountants working for them and you can just imagine them saying to them, can we find more ways of getting money out of our customers?

certainly tes... and i bet thats what they did do... but the problem comes now that ever other credit card will do the same... but what do the call infrequent use... beacuse if they give a money value on it (ie £100 per month) then i dont see a way around it...but if they state 5 transactions per month you could just buy a loaf of bread or simaler 5 time a month... but this doesnt help if you have maxed the card or you have cut it up :rotfl: grrr if i can get hold of a c/c provider right now i will give them what for :rotfl:

Its okay to use it once or twice a month for a loaf of bread if you have a nil balance but the problem is with 0% - if you use the card at all, then the £3.00 you paid for the bread would be charged interest and you would have to pay off all the 0% balance first before you could touch that £3 with 17.9% on it, or whatever interest rate it is.

ahh didnt know that tes :doh: sorry... lets hope someone finds a solution :rolleyes:

So thats why you should never spend on a 0% card if you are paying off debt with it. I didnt realise you didnt know that, just as well we brought the subject up. Under no circumstances must you use that card; but youre going to cut it up anyway arent you?

Please dont apologise posting. Why should you know such a thing? I only know because Ive read a lot of Martin's articles about credit cards and debt.
