You wouldn't believe the amount of times I've heard that :eek: Never commit to a credit card purely out of the welcome gift card. When that awesome £10 or £20 is spent, what next?
You should consider affordability, the financial uses it can provide to you and whether the card's charges and interest rate is worth obtaining.Advice provided from this account does not consist of any professional knowledge.

I just spend food or fuel on it and pay it off, just more good history to add to the file. I use them all at least one or twice every 2 months.0 -
I use my card for fuel too - although being Electric I spend like £10 a month and do all my mileage so I guess I could just use cash!0
