How much are you able to Stooze in this financial climate?

Options
I am finding it difficult to find a home for my £11k stooze in 0%. Can't seem to get any credit card currently even though I meet all payments etc without any problem. Tried applying for Fluid card and got rejected which the adviser said that it might be because of a high debt amount as it is.

What's your experience?

    I have £11k stoozed provided by barclaycard and natwest on 0% and invested in LTSB at 4% till october and previous years santander 123 ISA. Difficulty is finding somewhere to put it that makes it worthwhile, I've started drip feeding the LTSB stooze into newcastle bs isa for this year.

    How many cards do you possess, what's the available credit and how much do you currently owe.

    These are the factors that will determine your applications.

    Hi

    Can I ask how you managed to stooze?

    Do Barclay and Natwest provide superbalance transfer, or is there any other method?

    Thanks :)

    Original stooze was a car purchase to a 0% credit card for which I had to pay the garage a 2% fee, that was years ago and I've just kept paying the minimum and moving the balance to a new 0% card when required. I also did the m&s travellers cheques stooze when that was on offer which bumped up my stooze savings.
