in Credit cards
I am looking into getting a credit card to pay off a few things for a wedding, and am unsure which card is best. Some things can be paid by card but others may require cash or bank transfers. I need to borrow around 1500 but am unsure which card is best or which is likely to offer me a higher limit. I can repay all borrowed monies by end of next year, any suggestions on what card I should go for? Btw I am 23 and I know my young age goes against me for some lenders, but have a good credit score.

You can find eligibility checker in the articles, but the only way to find out the credit limit is to apply for real.0

Have you tried the "soft search" facility on the MSE website?
That'll give you a list of which cards you MAY qualify for; you wouldn't know for definite if you've been accepted (and your credit limit, of course) unless you conduct a full search.
As for your 'good' credit score? You don't have one. If you've signed up to Experian etc. that's just a computer generated number which no lender ever sees...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
