in Credit cards
Hi guys,
iam thinking of buying a playstation 3 ( £500)
but i dont want to use my ISA or savings to get it.... i wanna 0% card to pay it off each month.
i also need a card for a holiday i will be paying for in aug/sept ( £1000)
so, which card would suit me?
is there any 0% for 12 month on new purchases at the moment, coz i dont want a 9 month 0% becuase it will need switching whilst iam on hoiday!
cheers

nice one... cheers!!!!:money:

Don't forget that most holiday companies make a charge for paying by credit card.Well life is harsh, hug me don't reject me.0

yeh, iam not fussed about that, its worth it for me to keep my savings intact than to pay a few quid extra.
infact, another question i have....
does the 12 month 0% start from the date of your first purchase OR from the date your card is registred?
cheers0 -
Date your card is registered0
-
BUMMER.... is the registered date at the top of your statement then... so you can keep track of the ' 0% expirey date'?0
-
Don't think so, IIRC Martin has a text message service and he will text you 6 weeks prior to the expiry of the promotion0
-
what do you class as 'registred date' then?
when they recieve the application?
or when youv've signed a form and sent it back?0
