Take your Credit card down to the cash machine and withdrawing £900/1200 pounds sets off a HUGE Alarm back at the Banking Towers in The Big City and all the bankers break out the Champagne.
Another MUG too stupid to read the small print and lets see how much we can charge them over the next 1/2/3/6/12 months in EXTRA charges for cash withdrawals.
Renting a new place comes with all sorts of extra costs you never even see ( setting up phone/broadband/TV Licence, Gas/Water/Electric, Contents Insurance, FEES, Council Tax, New furniture and on and ON
Now many agents will take debit card and credit card payments but you will get hit with the CC charge if you use your Credit card0 -

Just had a message saying good news we have passed referencing and they are just drawing up contracts.
Is that definitely it then? Can you pass referencing but fail the credit check? Or does referencing mean everything?
They wouldnt draw up contracts if there was still any doubt would they?0 -

Money isn't money. Credit is not your money. It is a potentially high interest loan.0
