in Credit cards
Hi,
I would like to get my first credit card with a limit of around £500, and was wondering if anyone could point me in the right direction.
I am only 20, and as I say I have never had a credit card - so I'm assuming that I have no credit history which might prove an issue.
I took out a loan through my bank in August for £6000, and have smaller direct debits that I never fail to make payments on.
I would like a card with around 5 months+ 0% purchases as I would be able to pay the debt off within that time, and obviously I'm keen to avoid interest. I have no clue if these cards would even be an option for me.
Thanks in advance for any help, Rich
