we had about 8 between us, now down to 2

if you dont go stupid your fine have more than 6 all maxed, and they might start to get a bit twitchy, but as long as the payments are made they are happy

Make the payments and no-one bats an eyelid .................

Miss one, however and the sky starts to fold in .....

Live within your means and all will be ok :D

I only borrow at 0% what I could pay back at any moment

got to agre with pete (not often that happens:D ) if i get a 0% card i only borrow what i can payback over the period of the 0% time, been doing that for the last 8 years or so

I currently have 12 cards with a combined limit of near enough 150k. Never paid a pennny of interest. Every new card company thinks they will be the one to break me :D Last three cards I got had a 20k limit. I think the answer is - you are doing a good thing
