Advice on balance transfers from an Argos card

Hi all, I was wondering if anyone could give me some advice, am new to this site, we have just transferred the balance from our credit cards to 0% interest cards with barclaycard. All went well. The problem we have is that barclaycard wouldn't accept a transfer of the balance from our argos store card too, does anyone have any ideas of what we could do as the interest on this card is terrible? Would appreciate any help, thank you.:)

    Unfortunately from what I've seen on here, you cannot bal trf an Argos store card.
    How much is outstanding?
    Can you afford to pay more towards it now that you have transferred your other balance to 0%?
  • Hi, there is £1,500 on the Argos card, we had something on buy now pay later which we weren't able to pay off before the interest started going on, which unfortunately has went really high. That's why I was trying to see if we could do a balance transfer or if anyone else had any other ideas of what could be done. Thanks for your help.:)

    The only other ideas are a loan or an overdraft.
