Hi racetozero,racetozero said:I’ve been trying to pay off as much as possible to try and minimise the horrendous amount of credit card interest I am paying.#123 £5423 / £12105 = 44.8%
Have you looked to see if you can do a 0% balance transfer?
Even if one wasn't open to you 6 months ago, banks are fickle and new offers pop up (just not as much as they used to).
I just kept checking the MSE credit club for offers. Well worth a look, if you haven't already.
Good luck with your debt busting!
