    JB I agree with Seaxwyn to keep the cards open..MBNA type ones always offer repeat 0% deals when they haven't been used for a while.I would persevere with the cards.Also loans usually say typical per cent and then offer you them at a higher rate.

  • Right! Just applied for a 14month 0% card with Barclaycard, will see what the postman brings.

    DH is in massive bad books though, reminded him to set up DD for Virgin and pay it on Weds - needless to say he has done !!!!!! all :mad: As far as I'm aware making a late payment means we will lose our 0% deal - but Dh has specific instructions to ring up and grovel or face my wrath - watch this space :rolleyes:

  • It's such a good job DH isn't here. Put DS to bed to find that he'd had an accident last night and DH hadn't realised....or had he? :rolleyes: It really isn't his day today.....

    He is so laid back about it and got all defensive "what, why is it my fault" :mad: Have set up DD online now - frankly may as well do it myself, but have read a few other threads and if you are late with a payment, sometimes they reinstate the deal after grovelling. He even suggested I rang up pretending to be him to do it :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: yeah, I have such a deep voice :rolleyes:

    Finally got DS in bed, he's now got an upset stomach and DD has just shown me a letter from School saying there is a teacher's strike on Thursday :eek: looks like I'll be throwing a few sickies.

    I have just sat down and ate loads instead - aarrrggghhhhhh - and I'm hormonal :mad:
