Very Interesting offer from Tesco Finance/Clubcard mailed to me at a very appropriate time. Takes me back to the good old days :beer:

One to look out for if you're a customer of theirs.

0% on BOTH BT's and Purchases for 12months PLUS 1000 clubcard points if you make a purchase or transfer a balnace within the first two months. Those 1000 points can be worth up to £40 depending on useage :D

Form is pre-named and states Not available online or over the phone but it wouldn't hurt to ask would it ;)

It Expires 30 June 13.

    Here's a tip because Tesco caught me out with this clever tactic, make sure you clear your balance completely the month before your 0% offer expires and don't use your card again until your next statement arrives.

    I cleared my balance the statement before the 0% offer expired but continued to use my card and because the 0% offer expired between statements I got charged a full months interest on purchases I made between the offer expiring and the next statement arriving or some such rubbish as they tried to explain to me on the phone.

    Just out of interest do you use the card regularly ? reason I ask is that I have a Tesco card and cleared the balance after a 0% ran out and they have never offered me another BT deal and even when I ring up have nothing available.

    Am holding on in the hope they do as I have a decent credit limit on it but it does not seem likely.
