$ months of TD to go & counting !!!!

Both my hubby & I got vanquis credit cards last month, spent £30 each & this morning, as soon as wages went into bank, I paid them off in full !!!

Doesn't sound very exciting does it ?? But after years of paying minimum payments, believe me being able to pay off the full balance & being in control of money is a fantastic feeling !!! [:D][:D]

Hi boys

You'd be surprised how good a posting that actually is.

I think sometimes the key point is just regaining that control again.

Fair play to you boys1211. Not only a good positive posting but it has made my day to see Mark's reply starting "hi boys"!

Well done , have a emergency credit card myself , but always refuse the increase in credit limit .
Such a good feeling to say NO.

Hi greeneyedlad

Actually very easy to get the card, I think Vanquis is a card specifically for re-building poor credit rating !!!

High APR, over 36% per annum, but paying it off is really easy, we have registered our details online & paid it that way !!! So long as you pay in time the APR is irrevlevant...

Credit limit of £500 so way more than enough !!

My credit limit is now £2000. Pity they dont lower the apr at the same rate they up your limit!!

Still used sparingly and paid off ASAP.
