Credit Limits on New M&S 3.9%LOB/12m 0% Purchases Card

Hi all,

I'm tempted to get one of these to shuffle some of my debt to cheaper rates but would like to know how generous they are being with credit limits.

If you don't mind, people, could you post on here how much they are offering you?

    Someone on the other M&S thread posted that they had been offered £8k

    Just heard today OH has been accepted :T Huge relief, just have to wait to find out the limit now.
  • I even phoned up today and asked if they could tell me (I've been offered a card but only had a nemail from them so far) but they said not til the card is issued.

    Can we keep bumping this thread up so people can update it as and when they find out their limits? A lot of people are asking this question in several different threads - would be good to be able to compare them all on the one thread?

    well i didn't expect to get offered the m&s one as i just got turned down for the post office one. i have no bad rating but lots of cards and debts. no news on the limit it the email said i had to wait till i got the card. i'll post as soon as i know. this rate is better than remortgaging to cover my loans!

  • Nothing for me (well my bf), but where thinking of contacting them and providing more info like it mentioned in the information booklet as it would really help us.
