hi well done on the good news re the PPI.
Just a thought reading your first post, you say paying your insurance by a lump sum and will save £80 on your DD, can i assume that you've set up a DD to a savings account so that you have the lump sum there again for next year? A few years ago i was able to pay for my car/house insurance and rescue cover on a 0% card and straight away i changed the direct debit to a savings account, was one of the best decisions i made otherwise i'd still be paying credit charges at silly percentages.0 -
