Late payment by four days - £12 charge. Bit of a doh but I can handle it.

Withdrawal of 0% offer which I was expecting until March.

£59 interest this month

£93 the next

etc. etc.

Better make alternative arrangements

Yeah they withdrew the offer from me.

I can see the thinking but a grands worth of interest by the time its compounded is a bit harsh for four days IMO.

Sounds like a bit of a dodgy move to me. Just claim back any charges & switch.....plenty other offers around if they dont want your business!

And all online so much easier to work out....

Yeah balance transfer.

I got denied for a few so I'm not sure about going for more, was going to get off that bandwagon and just pay stuff off rather than spending it

Had my MBNA for about 12 years now....Always been good to me..Paid it off a wee while ago though as 8.5k credit limit was too tempting.

I have MBNA and i was late with a payment, they withdrew the 0% offer, so i called them and apologised for it and they put the offer back on for me and we set up a DD for the minimum amount so it wouldnt happen again.

Are the offering 0% on purchases for a few months? I'm tempted to get one to buy a TV in my flat as I don't want to pay for the whole thing at once really...

Balance transfer to your bank account so you could just buy it with real money and then move the credit over. 3% fee though.

Check what offer you get as well, not sure if everyone gets that.

You need to be earning mega bucks to get a Morgan & Stanley credit card.
