Looks like a trip for us to the EU is out then, we've not had a credit card since 1984.

Cash and cheques are so yesterday !

Just look at all these crisp beautiful colours, and now we're going polymer.
Plus it's nice having no debt not even a penny. Don't wake in the morning thinking oh I must pay my credit card bill, it's the end of the month again.

Ps don't know why all those spaces came in that line, stupid tablet

I don't consider credit card use to be a form of debt.

For me it is simply a convenient, deferred payment method that facilitates the purchasing of goods on line and makes it unnecessary for me to carry large amounts of cash around on my person.

I always pay the card off in full every month and if I was worried about forgetting it, I'd simply set up a direct debit.

My credit card is never in "debt" I always pay up front on the card, right now my card issuer owes me £25.72, I could'nt care that the money is'nt earning interest! Whats that these days! Always used it that way, there was a time when they would put you on a "black or bad debters" list for doing what I've always done, but I fought them and won as to be in debt you have to owe money or goods which is not something I ever do.

As an aside the continent pretty much as a whole was way behind the UK in accepting cards, strange really as they are now everywhere! I prefer to pay cash for most things, so I draw that in advance, the less I use my card the less likely I am to be scammed!!! imho
