Good Credit Card Habits

Work out how much you can spend: A monthly budget can go a long way to helping you manage your money. Knowing how much you spend on essential items such as food, rent, mortgage repayments, transport, insurance, and entertainment means you know how much you can spend on your credit card each month.

Know how much you spend: Write down everything you buy on your credit card. Use internet or Phone Banking often to ensure you know how much you have spent. Don't wait until your monthly statement to get a surprise!

Pay at least the minimum payment every month: This means that you will avoid some of the fees that many credit card companies charge, such as late payment fees or over limit fees. The best way to do this is to set up a direct debit to your credit card for the minimum or the full amount. If you pay the full amount every month - you avoid interest altogether.

Reduce your credit limit if you think it may get out of hand: The best way to avoid having high credit card bills, is to have a low credit limit. Ask your credit card company to reduce your credit limit down to what is manageable or what you may need for a particular purpose, such as a holiday.
