in Credit cards
Does anyone know if it's possible to use the 0% balance transfer available on a credit card to overpay on my flexible mortgage-obviously at the end of the 0% deal I'd transfer it back out of the mortgage and pay off the card...
This is my first post so hope I'm not asking something obvious!!

Have a look here:

Most credit cards that allow balance transfers (BTs) only allow the BT from another credit card. Egg Money (and some others) allow the BT from a bank current account. So if you get yourself an Egg Money card, you can then do a BT from Egg Money to your 0% BT credit card. That puts Egg Money in credit. You then do a BT (or just transfer the money yourself from Egg's website) from Egg Money to your current account. You can then do what you want with the cash - in your case, pay it into your flexible mortgage account.0
