Supragal Posted May 31, 2005 Share Posted May 31, 2005 flippin heck.........I bow down at the queen. I had 5 at one point, managed to max them all out. Used to go on random shopping trips to Milton Keynes and it would not be unusual for me to spend £400 a time. I'm down to three now. Refuse to use them............. Best way to be!! Once they're cleared then thats it, gone. No more. I'll keep maybe my 2 favorite for emergency use and holidays etc but otherwise I want out!!

Green Peace Posted June 1, 2005 Share Posted June 1, 2005 I got similiar probs but i only have two credit cards, I do have two Debit cards too and I try to use them instead. The Best thing to do is not have a credit card but have a charge card like Amex (in an ideal world) as you HAVE TO pay it off att the end of the month and its quite a disciplined system, it stops you spending money you havent got, but allows you to buy something or draw cash out in an emergency knowing that you got a month to pay it back..bit like borrowing money off a mate really. I found that was the best way to survive in a credit card world, but what i started doing wrong was using my credit card to pay my Amex bill oooppps. Edited To Say: American Express Customer service 'Sucks' and if you default by just a few days they get really shitty..which in a way is v good as it means you HAVE to pay it off. Trouble is no-one bleeding takes Amex anywhere Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
