in Credit cards
Hi,
If I wanted to pay off a very account with a credit card would this count as a purchase?
I only ask as I've already been told it would not count as a balance transfer.
Cheers
Stuart

So i'm ok to apply for a CC with 0% interest free on purchases for 18 months and then pay off my very account? (providing they accept that form of payment). And then I'll have 18 months to pay off the balance interest free?0 -
Yes (providing you pay at least the minimum payment each month and don't go overlimit etc on the credit card).A smile enriches those who receive without making poorer those who giveor "It costs nowt to be nice"0

Furthermore you'll get an additional six months buy now, pay later on top of Very's offering if the item you've got qualifies for their 12 month plans.It's not your credit score that counts, it's your credit history. Any replies are my own personal opinion and not a representation of my employer.0
