INTEREST FREE - Is it mis-selling?

Borrowing money is often free.

I own my CC company more than £2k. I won't pay them any interest.

I can borrow £250 for as long as I like from First Direct, and they won't charge me anything.

Your credit card skims a couple of percent from the vendor for the transaction, so the credit card company still makes money and the sale price has likely been increased to compensate.

Its about as mis-selling as advertising a £300 laptop for £600 for 3 weeks of the year and offering
it at 50% off sale for the other 49 weeks.

Marketing BS and if it works and it sells then happy days.

When does the sale end? :rotfl:

The flip side to this is we just bought something on 0% finance despite having the cash to buy it outright as it's good for the credit history later down the line
