How long will it take to repay with the Barclaycard Platinum Purchase

Fixed payment
By switching to the Barclaycard Platinum Purchase, you could pay off £1000 in by budgeting £50 each month. This would effectively cost you £50.
Minimum payment
By comparison, if you only make the minimum payment each month, it would take 21 years and 8 months to repay, costing you a total of £2,555 on top of the original balance!
If this seems high, that's because your minimum payment is calculated as a percentage of your balance. This means each payment will be slightly lower than the month before which will have less effect on clearing your balance. So be smart and pay as much as you can afford!

"Guest's Barclaycard Platinum Purchase Card Review"
Have had a Barclaycard for over 15 years. But enough is enough. Although easy to manage online if EVER you need to ring the call centre the whole experience is total, utter, complete incompetence. So...as of this week am changing to UK call centre based credit card - hurray!!
