Moving a Student loan onto a 0% credit card

Argyle_Stinge

Just wondering whether it is possible to put the remainder of my Student Loan onto a 0% credit card? How would I go about paying the money to Student loans from the card and could you keep transferring the money to other 0% credit cards indefinately?

Has anyone done this?

I transferred my student loan to a credit card, however, I had to pay the loan via an overdraft first and then transfer the overdraft, the bank would not let me do it any other way.

you can actually pay your loan with a credit card and get cash back at the same time. It would be classed as a purchase.

Then I suppose you could transfer to 0% cards from there on.

It is easy to do with a MINT credit card if your Credit Limit is high enough.They give you, no cost, cheques to use for any purpose.

Are we sure they dont surcharge you or reduce the amount paid to suit?

Has anyone done this? do you just phone them up and ask?
