0% credita card to pat solicitors fees

Hello
Could you tell me if I still have 0% on my credit card if I pay for solicitors fee. Also I had a BarclayCard credit card for a few years now with £2000 credit and never used it. Do you think they would agree to increase my credit to £4000. Thank you to everyone who will reply

    That's down to the solicitors' merchant acquirer, and what MCC (merchant category code) they use.

    Unlikely, as they've nothing to base their decision on. However, you could ask for nothing?...well, the 'cost' of a credit search.
  • Will your solicitor accept a credit card payment?

    If not you need a card that will allow you to transfer money to your bank account.

  • they said they ok with credit card.
    where can I find a credit card that I can transfer cash to my bank account, would it be 0%? sorry for being like a baby with all the questions, just never done it before

    It's certainly neither a cash advance / currency purchase, nor gambling. What other code can not qualify for 0%?
  • OP doesn't seem that clear that they have a current 0% offer.
  • Some solicitors do now accept CC as payment. Becomes a bit more tricky if it's "client money" (eg the deposit for a house). I assume the OP means "fees" in the real sense.
