in Credit cards
In light of the new trend of charging for BT fees on 0% CC's I thought it'd be useful to show the fees the CC companies are charging for BT's, this might help with a price war on BT fees!!
Heres a list of current charges (info taken from todays BBC's Working Lunch programme)
Barclays Min £5 Max £50
MBNA Min £2 Max £50
Mint Min £2 Max £40
A&L Min £2 Max £35
Tesco Min £2 Max £35
Egg Min NONE Max £35
If anyone knows of others/changes (or indeed if any still offer no charges) to these then please post them here.

Abbety National charge - how much depends on your t&c's . Can be as much as 2% of the BT. Halifa also charge on their 12 month card - not sure how much.

Intelligent Finance was free for me last week
Abbey do charge unless you have a slip advising 'no further charges will be made' providing you request the BT when you sign and return the T&C's 0 -

The following cards from recent experience do not charge any balance transfer fee:
1. Goldfish
2. Beneficial
3. The GM
4. Capital One (I have only used their cheques).
5. Co-OP - Providing transfer is done by phone.Charles J0 -
Can we also add Lloyds TSB and RBS to the list.
LTSB BT has to be done within 6 weeks of opening account though - can't remember any special conditions with RBS.
NB: The application forms I have are approx 1 month old so it might have changed since I picked them up.0 -
Another one bites the dust folks!
Beneficial from 31.05.05 will now charge a balance transfer fee of “2% of the amount of each balance transfer (minimum £5 and maximum £50".
There normal cheques i.e. ones that are not specifically BT cheques will also now be treated as cash advance and will be subject to 2% of the amount advanced (minimum£2.50)".Charles J0 -
Can you believe it? .........Yet another!
Lloyds TSB from 01.07.05 will "charge 2% of the amount of each Balance Transfer or cash Withdrawal and for each cheque (Minimum £2.50) unless we tell you a charge is not payable"
Who next?Charles J0
