    Failing this you may be better off to move your debt to a low rate loan.

    Again, Nationwide recommended - you can get a real world quote without affecting your credit score.

    You are not going to get a big enough credit limit from any one credit card provider to cover this debt. Even if you were on £30,000 a year salary you'd be hard pushed to get a limit high enough.
    Thanks - yeah i was given a max of £1800 on Nationwide which isnt anywhere near enough to put it all over to 0% and I wont get a loan as I dont own my own house, and already have an unsecured loan with HBOS (was for an emergency)

    Yeah i agree with izools, try their soft search loan quote function as well. As izools said it can be quite hard to get a credit card with a high enough limit, although some folk Will open several cards and spread the balance.
