0% balance transfer card with bad credit rating?

Hi :hello:

I'm looking to apply for a card with 0% on balance transfers so that I can transfer my hsbc credit card debts over to it.

We do not have a very good credit rating at all and i wondered if anyone could advise of a company which im more likely to be accepted by??? (if there is such a thing)

Thanks

    Think you'll be lucky to get 0% without a half-decent rating, you might get a lower-interest life of balance though. Best place would be to do the moneysupermarket.com smartsearch option - it'll give you an indication of how good/bad your rating might be.
