With 6 month IFC deals, I thought they ordinarily took bank details, and you repaid by direct debit from your current account - Either by instalments, or in full at the end of the term. I am not at all surprised you incurred interest by paying by store card, in fact I'd be staggered had you not. It's clear that you were misold the card - but with no way of proving the circumstances upon which you applied, I think you'll have a difficult task getting your refund due. The best thing to put your case to customer services at head office, and with a little luck they should hopefully remedy this situation. Andy
