in Credit cards
We have three credit cards with 0% interest, which expire end of the year in December, januray and March. Hubby has been offered a santander 0% for 15mth on balance transfers card, with a £3 a month fee. Part of me thinks we should hold off and wait a few months to see if better deals come up such as no fee (as has been the case multiple times, but they seem really sparce lately) but then I don't want to rely on what 'may' happen and then end up paying a bigger fee to transfer. What would you do?

Presumably the edge card? Santander also do a no fee card. Everyday No fee with 12 month interest free.
I picked up a couple of zero fee zero interest for 12 - 15 months a couple of months ago.
I would not pay £3 per month to have a card but in 6 months time when you really need a card there might be slim pickings.1 -

You don't need the card now so why apply? Give it another 2 - 3 months and try then.I’m a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on Debt Free Wannabe, Old Style Money Saving and Pensions boards.
