Hi. Does anyone have any idea of the interest free period on Amex? I think some banks give up to 3 months to clear up your credit before tacking on interest.
Is this applicable to Amex?

Interest-free periods vary.
Some card issuers offer up to 2 1/2 years interest free.
There are also balance transfer cards, through which you can transfer accumulated debt from one card to another, some of which also offer long interest-free periods.

In theory, you could buy an item on a credit card (for instance brand new PCs, phones or the proverbial Nairaland student's car in the region of £1k, using a money transfer card) and not pay a penny in interest other than the minimum monthly payment/money transfer fee on that debt for up to 3 1/2 years if you really wanted to.

As has been previously pointed out, all credit is debt, so ......

Maybe unrelated, but where do guys shop for wears pls?.

In stores are very low quality and expensive: jeans up to 35£ and dull looking
Online not that expensive and still wack. Boohooman, wish, amazon.

Possibly there are other places you guys shop.

Next or next clearance on their website. If you check the clearance section they put more stuff daily

Happy Monday, People of the UK wink

Biko, which of these platforms is more suitable for LISA - Moneybox or Beehive?

I gathered they're about the best two, however, I presume one would have an edge against the other.

Thanks for your insight.

Good luck with that. Based on my experience with a family of 5, the estate agents showed them pepper.

Omo. Those estate agents showed me fire (family of 5). Getting a 2 bed was near impossible so had to settle for 3. Even with that, at one point, I had to start lying about my number of kids till I saw a house where the Landlord requested he sees the prospective tenants physically. It was when I saw the Landlord was open to giving me the apartment I declared the true number of kids, guy man just added £100 monthly to the rent and said he was happy to do a 2 year contract with a 6 month break out clause which I accepted. It proved to be wise decision in the end as rent in that area is skyrocketed and I am just close to a year into the contract and salary increased 3ce giving me headroom.

This is currently available in my location and quite cheap for a 3Bed, rooms are quite spacious and the neighborhood is quiet and secure

https://www.zoopla.co.uk/to-rent/details/56919253/


URGENT!
Anyone has a sure plug (an agent) for rented apartments (2 bed) in and round Ellesmere Port, Birkenhead, Chester and Liverpool for a family of 4 that just relocated to the UK about 2 weeks ago. The family is ready to cough out 3 months rent upfront.

Or better still, anyone with a 2 rooms in a flat to sublet for a short period of time (1 to 2 months)

I think time and chance is everything. Both sides of the argument have elements of truth.
If you get a job solely on certifications and no work
If you can get certified without paying heavily please do. It will look good on your CV but after that it's just time and chance, no guarantees at all.

Please can you recommend any IT recruitment firm?

Why not? A family of 5 (as long as the kids are below 10) in a 2 bed is not overcrowding. In most cases, the landlords are not the issue except in cases where kids are not allowed due to grumpy neighbours. The important thing the Landlord is after is your ability to pay rent timely and your right to rent. families tend to stay longer in a rent contract. The estate agents know this and it would mean reduced one-off commission for them. No landlord likes changing tenants every now and then due to agency and renovation costs.
