in Credit cards
HI all,
I have just graduated and completed a legal practice diploma. I want to kickstart my career up north while i currently live with my parents in Hertfordshire.
My question is what options do i I have after i accept an employment contract for financing a deposit on a flat and the general cost of living before i receive my first paycheck.
I have calculated that £1,000 would be plenty as i am moving with my partner. I was considering whether a credit card would be an option but as i could clear that debt within just a few months of working. However, i am unaware of the various types that would be best for me or whether I would be eligible at all.
I am not currently working and therefore have no savings to rely on.
Any suggestions as to options potentially available i could look into would be much appreciated.
Thanks all!

Without an income you won't get a CC, the only possibility might be an overdraft from your own bank?0
