    Ah thanks .. I just assumed with it being a Sunday they would be closed :o

    The car isn't an expensive one but it looks good for me, low millage, within my price bracket and it's a Volvo so my dad is happy, suposably they are built well incase I crash .. don't know what he's trying to say :eek:

    I would try barclaycard and Halifax to see if they will do you a 0% offer. How much do you need to balance transfer? I would then close 2 as having a lot of available credit sometimes affects your credit score.

    I'm not sure about MBNA or TSB but it might be worth logging into BC and Halifax if you have online banking set up for your cards. Every time I log into either of those they have offers listed down the right hand side of the page. BC also send me a letter every month offering me new deals for purchases, balance transfers and withdrawing cash so they will hopefully be open to offering you something.

    Good luck.
