Hi guys, I wonder if you can help me make a decision?
I have got £10700 spread over 3 credit cards. Two of the cards are 18.9% APR and the other is 7.9% (reduced rate for 6 months)
I am tempted to get a personal loan for less than 7%APR to clear these cards so I can cancel them and pay lower interest until paid in full.
Do you think this is a good idea?

I'm pretty sure most folk on here would say no to consolidation loans.... no chance of getting a 0% interest card LG? and transfer at least some of the credit to it?I am one of the 63336.'It is better to have lived one day as a tiger than a thousand years as a sheep.'

It doesn't go too bad!!!
Just got a 0% mint card until Feb 09 so should hopefully reduce the debt free date a bit further. Looking forward to 5 days off from Friday and getting 'pie eyed' over xmas!Natwest Card 27.06.10 (reduce every month) £267.63
