If you haven't had a CC before, you may not have much choice. Usual advice is to ask your own bank first.Hi , complete novice when it comes to finance here.

Apparently it's OK to apply if you have a sufficient credit history from other sources: mortgage, loans, store cards, etc.Fruit_and_Nut_Case wrote: »If you haven't had a CC before, you may not have much choice. Usual advice is to ask your own bank first.0 -
Why do you want it in the first place? Extra protection? Cashflow problems until September? Paying for the holiday or using abroad?Hi , complete novice when it comes to finance here.

If you want it for using it abroad, then Halifax Clarity is the best one, but if you will want to use it for rewards and all the other things after the holidays, then perhaps it'd be worth checking out the credit card section of this website.0
