New Credit Card Deal Needed

Hi,

I've read quite a few of the posts on here but cannot find one which is similar to my question, so sorry if this has been asked before.

I Have a bad credit history but I'm dealing with my debts and proud of it. The biggest problem I have is that as I'm paying off the other debts I can only afford just above the monthly minimum on my credit card, and so this means I'm only actually paying a very small amount of the debt off each month when the interest and payment protection have been taken from the amount paid:mad: . Due to being in debt and having a poor credit rating I don't think I'll be able to get one of the great 0% deals which are about and I don't want to apply for loads of cards as this will damage my credit rating even more. Could anyone who has been in a similar situation give any advice or let me know if they got any deals and where the best place to apply would be?

Thanks in advance:rolleyes:
