Hands up all those who remember the old E111 medical forms you were supposed to have if you travelled in Europe? I can see all those blank faces!
Well, great news is that it doesn't matter any more. The E111 form was replaced at the beginning of January 2006 by a new European Health Insurance Card (EHIC).
This EHIC is valid for up to 5 years and entitles you to the same level of medical care in the country you're travelling in, as would be enjoyed by the residents of that country. The card covers discounted and free medical care including emergency treatment, and applies to all the EEC countries plus Switzerland, Norway, Iceland and Liechtenstein. But be aware that the treatment you're entitled to might not include all the treatments you get free of charge under the National Health Service here in Britain.
Nevertheless, we believe that it's wise to carry a EHIC as it could save you time, money and a great deal of hassle if you're unlucky enough to need medical attention. It can cut through some of the inevitable red tape you'd be faced with if you were relying just on the medical provisions of your travel insurance policy.

The Aspire Gold Visa Card issued by Columbus Bank and Trust is specifically designed for individuals with a poor or limited credit history, and who only need the basic functions of a credit card. Due to the nature of this card, interest rates imposed for outstanding balances are high, with the minimum variable rates. This simply means that no matter how low the Prime Rate may get, interest rates imposed will not drop below this minimum. On top of that, the rates are tagged to the highest Prime Rate within a 90-day period making low APRs a distant fantasy. As though these nerve-racking rates are not enough to scare intelligent folks away, the Aspire Gold Visa Card charges various fees that Regular Joes would not call "loose change." The minute your application is approved, a $150 annual fee for new accounts are imposed followed by a $29 account opening fee as well as a monthly maintenance fee of $78 per annum. All this adds up to $257 just within the first year, excluding any penalty or default fees should you be daft enough to use this card and not the outstanding balances off without fail.

It's actually quite rare in our society that we have the time or resources to truly make a difference, but with the Make-A-Wish Platinum Visa Card, you can change a child's life every time you buy groceries or fill your car with gas.
The Make-A-Wish foundation was created in 1980 to grant the wishes of children who have life-threatening medical conditions. Since that time, more than 144,000 children worldwide have been helped by this amazing organization, and with 25,000 volunteers standing ready, all that's needed is your support to “share the power of a wish.”
Each time you buy anything with your Make-A-Wish Platinum Visa Card, a percentage of that purchase is donated to the foundation that helps so many children. This card makes it quite attractive to make purchases, too. There is no annual fee, and there are no fees for balance transfers. For the first six months that you own the card, you'll pay just a 1.9% APR on both your purchases and your balance transfers. Even after your grace period expires, you'll still experience a great rate of 16.24% on all purchases and balance transfers. Even the rate on cash advances is quite nice. At just 1.9% for the
