credit card question.

Options
When I entered into my IVA I had credit cards with vanquis and one of the other credit builders. I was in debt with vanquis but not the other but I handed them over as I was told I had to.

However vanquis keep sending me emails saying your credit card is ready for you blah blah. When my IVA is finished would vanquis give me a new card? or should I go for one of the others like marbles or capital one?

    After your IVA you could get more credit cards again, as you would only use them for credit building get which ever one you like as you will be clearing them off each month and not attracting the high interest.
