I've heard of it, yes. I don't think it will get you in too much trouble as long as you only use your credit card for the fee, and not to go on a wild shopping spree.:DBCSC Member 70:j

And yes, if you go to Primark you can go absolutely crazy with £300! You'd have bags and bags of stuff.

Unless you have the OR from hell, then you won't.
I've read hundreds of posts where people have done this, and I can't remember it being an issue once.

I used available overdraft. Felt a bit bad going into the bank and withdrawing but it was fine. The OR has been through our bank statements and queried a couple of things (£200 Ryanair flights) but not mentioned the withdrawals made days before BR.:starmod: I am not that savage :heartpuls But I am a Vixen :staradmin0
