Darcy, did they not send you any paperwork in the post? Surely that would have your bond numbers on
I'm really peeved with Vanquis. Got the card back in May or June and they have not increased my limit from £250 :mad: I think I will keep that card for 12 months so I have nice 12 green zeros and then I will cancel it.
Good night all x0 -

It's about 2% a month - so about £60 a month on a £2900 balance, £45 3/4 of that, etc.0 -

Daily closing balance x monthly rate x 12 / 365
...and will only stop accruing when you've cleared two consecutive statements in full and by their respective payment due dates.0 -
thanks yb and tfd,
i will show her the answer as im still a bit baffled by it all i think she aims to pay 800 a month or so to clear it off quickly but i know some is her daughter and son in laws holiday cost so they will pay it on next pay day i dont think it will be that bad a figure but she wass paniking somewhat!!self confessed 80's throwback:D
