Best Credit Card for £2000

I need about £2000 to pay off a few things and would be looking to pay it back over a year-I don't think I can get a loan. Which credit card would be best for this , with a low percent rate and maybe also a 0% on all purchases for a few months.

  • If I couldn't get a £2000 limit would it be best to have a few credit cards with say £500 limit and spread payments that way .

    The Halifax 12 month credit card offers interest free balance transfers and purchases for a year. A 3% handling charge applies to BTs.
    People who don't know their rights, don't actually have those rights.
  • This is my first post on here and I think this is a great site !!

    Anyway Ive just applied for a mint card 2.5% balance transfer fee and 0% until December 2008 and 0% on purchases until May 2008.

    What I didn't know until yesterday is that if you go through Quidco: Link

    http://www.quidco.com/finance/credit-cards/mint/

    You get £22 cashback which helps with balance transfer fee (ive been accepted so wish I knew about this earlier) :mad:

    Hope this helps.
