Credit Card Now

The Capital One Venture Rewards Card has been a big hit since it hit the market earlier this year with its “100,000 Match Your Miles” promotion. While the promo didn’t last as long as we would have all liked, the card offer continues to be quite popular among travel rewards junkies searching for credit cards that will allow them to rack up serious miles.

There was a popular business version of the Venture Rewards Card too; however, it was recently pulled from the market.  In its place, Capital One has launched the new Spark Miles for Business Card, which is actually quite similar to its predecessor.

The default rate, however, fell to 4.13 percent, down from 4.67 percent the previous month, which hits another new low for the industry. The

If you have a credit card for your business (like the American Express Business credit card), should anyone have access to it besides you? And if someone should have access to your business credit card, why would they need it? Is this the same for all businesses or can credit card access needs change as your business grows?

Q Our mortgage finishes in 18 months, but it is an endowment with a shortfall of about £12,000. I do not work as I care for my elderly mother, and my partner is self-employed and earns very little.

We live in a two-bed house with an 11-year-old boy and a nine-year old-girl who share a bedroom. We cannot afford to move and have decided the only solution is to turn our loft into a room for our son. We expect this to cost about £10,000.

My partner will ask the bank regarding a loan, but do you think we would be better off putting the extra borrowing on the mortgage? Of course, we also have the added problem of how we are going to repay the £12,000 when the mortgage finishes. LS
