Looking at going Thailand end of september, not the ideal time but I've got 2 weeks free and Benidorm is shite.

​

Never been to Pattaya but may aswell spend a few days seeing what it's all about. With the weather being shit, I'm probably gonna go travel around the north after that and so I'll have a car. Not sure I fancy leaving a rental on the street in a litteral sin city?

​

As I understand it, LK Empress is half decent and has plenty of parking, I'm assuming it's less likely to get full up in late September?

​

Anyone used any decent guest friendly hotels with plenty of parking for cars that are bigger than a fiat uno.

Hello, sorry if I come across as ignorant but I wasn't exactly gifted with the brains of Britain. Reading up on credit cards is driving me to my wits end because there's more information than I can take in.

I'm with First Direct who offer a "purchase card"

I want to book a flight that I can afford but I want the buyer protection that credit cards give. I then want to pay the full amount off and forget about the credit card until the next time I need a flight, without any unintended consequences.

I own my own house, I never need credit otherwise and I've no plan to ever borrow money, build credit, earn rewards or do anything else with it.

Will the purchase card do what I need it to do?

Can I pay the purchase off by just sending money from my normal account to the account number and sort code of the credit card? (Assuming it has these like a normal account)

Does my credit limit get reset as soon as I've paid the full amount off and can I then buy another flight upto the credit limit?

Thanks a lot in advance from an aging technophobe.
