Barclay card are doing 0% on Balance transfers up to £5000 until August next year I thing I read on one of my junk mail envelopes

Barclaycards current offer is 0% on balance transfers AND purchases for 12 months.. but the offer runs out at the end of the month or something like that....

Word of warning on these 0% on transfers deals. Too things can happen (based upon real life experience):
1) You get the new card straight away, with a tiny limit that is a useful as a chocolate fireguard.
2) Your application doesn't get processed until after the 0% deal has expired ("Sorry, the delay is due to the unexpected volume of applications we have received").

With life, there's no getting something for nothing. This is doubly true with credit card companies. Lying little

tvrds.

Rant over, sunny smiles again!

Best one is Sainsbury's. It's about my fifth and gave me £15k to spend (oh s**t) and 0% for 6 months. But Loz is right, I've had a couple that don't reach the balance you want to transfer. They are slowly catching on!!
