in Credit cards
Im looking at purchasing a new camera for £410.
As i dont currently have a credit card could i get one and purchase the camera. Then get one of the balance transfer 0% for 36 months credit cards with a low fee and transfer the £410 from the 1st card to the 2nd one?
Thanks

You would need to speak to a bank or other financial institution to see if you can get a credit card. Either way you would still need to pay off the debt at some stage, you just couldn't keep swapping between 0% cards.0

You could get a 0% purchase credit card and then there is no need for a second card and you'll save on the balance transfer fee0
