    Post a question in the Credit Cards thread above and see if the person who was looking at that option got away with it?

    You will not find a fee-free points earning method of paying HMRC so I would expect all card payments to incur a fee in excess of the points earning rate.

    There's a huge thread on credit cards.

    I don't think Curve have yet reconnected with Amex so I don't think there is a way to use Amex at present.

    One of the biggest commercial myths going, that Amex is accepted everywhere. MBNA used to do a 'companion' visa or mastercard so when the merchant refused or didnt take Amex, they could pay via the associated visa or mastercard on their amex account.

    Since the sale to Lloyds who scrapped a lot of MBNA's affinity card tie ups, I dont know if they retained Amex or the companion card set up.

    How to (still) pay your HMRC tax bill with a credit card
    I've used Billhop once. It is expensive and you have to set it up several days in advance of when you want the payment to land as it takes a while.
