I’ve always relied on other people’s opinions and experiences when making financial decisions. Since it’s that time of the year again when I need to apply for my Car Insurance, I was referred to Thriftyscot.co.uk by a friend.

Thriftyscot is like a one stop financial shop. They offer everything you might need, financial advice, insurance quotes, debt management and just about everything that has to do with money.

Saturday, December 8th, 2007

The task of finding a credit card seems like a daunting task. What more looking for a bank willing to take on 95% of your debt.

First time card holders usually apply through their bank, without really researching for pertinent information. Interest rates or typical APR should be your main concern, as well as the finance charges if you make late payments. Will you be getting any rewards or cashbacks from the credit card you’ll be using? Even if these features do not concern you at the moment, you should consider these as important factors especially when the bank statements start rolling in.

One good site to start your search is Creditcards gb. Aside from comparing credit cards, they also have a list of banks that offer 0% Balance Transfers. They have very helpful articles and news about credit cards. For more information, you can visit their website.
