in Credit cards
TIA, im just wondering I pay my very account off with a credit card will it be classed as a balance transfer or a purchase.
I have a small balance on bnpl, but it will run out and have nothing on my credit card which is 0% for another 32 months, wondering if to do that.
Was a bit worried it might be a cash advance.
Thanks

Classed as a purchase. I paid my BNPL off with a 0% purchase card.All that glitters is not gold.0

Ok thanks, so I can stick it on my santander123 card, or another one and then balance transfer across. Ideally will try and settle it before hand but just thinking worse case.0

If it's a new card, have you heard of Spending 0% Cards?0 -
I paid my Very account off using an existing card - then i balanced transferred that amount over to a new 0% interest card. Was much cheaper to pay the 2% balance transfer fee than the 44.9% apr at Very once the BNPL ran out (it also took me quite a few clicks on very.com to find the apr and i was :eek::eek::eek: - They kept that well hidden!Finally dealing with debt: 01.01.2015 -£10,562.:(

You mean the APR that's printed on the back of every statement - postal and PDF?0
