Hi
I’m running through my finances on the mortgage calculator and it asks for information about monthly commitments including credit cards. Now I don’t have a large credit card debt as I just spend on it and pay in full at the end of the month. This leaves no balance left for that month that’s due on it.
Do I still need to put this down because it reduces the amount offered by a long way. It’s just daily spending I put on it and pay it off before due date.
Thank you

No, because it's just a payment mechanism. Your spend would be accounted for elsewhere - eg food, petrol, whatever.0
