Hi,

FWISW, I got a 0% Halifax card back in Feb with the 0% on purchases and 
balance transfers due to run out in mid Sept. Today, I got my statement with 
4p interest charged.

OK, it was only 4p, and my phone call to them probably cost more, but when I 
rang them up I had to stand firm on the fact it was a 0% card. Yes, they did 
apologise but I felt I had to be a tad 'forceful' in pointing out that I 
should not be charged any interest.

I wonder how many other 0% card-holders have been charged? On its own 4p is 
not much but what if you have tens of thousands of 4ps per month?

OK, enough of the ps.. :-)

Check those statements
