My sister has some debt and I'm trying to help her repay by getting her to transfer her balance to a 0% interest card, however we need to find one that will accept Disability Living Allowance as income. Apparently there are some out there but we cant find them. Can anyone help with this please
thanks

    How large is her balance?
    I came into this world with nothing and I've got most of it left.
  • I would have said that most would accept DLA but as everyone over 16 is being moved to PIP I'm not so sure, what other benefits does she get?

    I asked how big the debt was for a reason. If it's a substantial debt, I doubt any lender would take it on a 0% card with only DLA as income. If it hasn't been cleared thus far, then how will it be cleared once the promotional rate comes to an end?
