Could anyone advise me on a card or company that offers 0% introductory offer for at least 5 months that includes cash advances??

The answer is “none”.No ccc is offering a 0% on cash advances,and never will.Cash advances are no good to begin with.This option should only be used in a extreme emergency only.

Chris,

Take a look at our “Low Intro Rate Report” within our “Card Reports” sections. The only card I can think of off hand that offers any type of introductory rate on cash advances is the AmTrust http://www.amtrust.com platinum card. This card features a 4.9% rate on purchases and cash advances (cash advance fee from $5-$25 is charged) for four months. I’m sure there are others. But, as credit smart points out, you should generally avoid advances.
