Interest Free Period

  • Maximum 56 days from the date of any new purchases that have been added to your account since your last statement if you pay your main balance (excluding any promotional balance with a 0% interest rate) in full and on time each month. 
  • No interest free period on cash withdrawals (this is subject to any interest free promotional offer)

Interest Charging Information

If interest is payable, it will be charged over the following periods:

Purchases:

  • date charged to your account until it is paid in full.

Cash withdrawals:

  • date charged to your account until it is paid in full.

Your simple purchase and cash interest rates will move up and down in line with changes to the Bank of England Base Rate. Base Rate changes will not apply to your promotional interest rates. 

We work out how much interest we charge each month using a simple interest rate. We also show you the compound equivalent as it takes account of interest you will pay on interest if you do not repay your total outstanding balance in full each month.

Allocation of Payments

If you do not pay your balance in full we will apply payments we receive to reduce higher interest rate balances before lower interest rate balances. For further details, please refer to your terms and conditions.

Minimum Repayment

 You must pay at least the minimum payment every month. This will be the higher of:

  • £5, or the full balance if less than £5
  • An amount equal to any interest, default fees, account usage fees or account fees that have been added to your account since your last statement, plus 1% of the rest of your statement balance

If you only make the minimum payment each month it will take you longer and cost you more to clear your balance.
