Ever Increasing Marbles

A slap in the face in the post this morning. HFC Marbles have increased the APR to a whopping 26.9 % on my card and an increase of 0.5% to minimum payment. I know minimum payments are not the way to go but this doesn't help.

Been playing around on whatsthecost.com and this is now my highest interest rate card, it has to go. Have to redo my snowball and get ready to wipe these debts out from January onwards.

convenient how they raise the rates just near Christmas time! Can you get a 0% balance transfer? I've been trying for one, but not having any luck at all so far.

Hi Louise
Got one 0%, don't want to apply for too many at once. Will wait til the spring for another attempt.

Main thing is as this card is the highest APR I have and is a third of my total debt it is now my main focus.
