Stroud & Swindon: fee or no fee?
I just applied for a Stroud & Swindon c/c, based on it being included in the "zero fee" category on the site, only to receive an application form from The Co-operative Bank, who run the card, showing a balance transfer fee of 2%! Anyone else discovered this? Looks like the S&S card no longer qualifies for the zero fee…

Middle-to-Advanced Stoozing Routes
Hello there... In the spirit of understanding stoozing better, I want to check if I understand something correctly. If I were using the "Middle Route" for stoozing (i.e., Egg Money and 0% BT cards) and wanted to make the money work harder, I would opt for the "Advanced Route" and have the money transferred (SBT through…

[This is about an offer which is no longer available from BC but the card will be held by many members here:] A small point occurs about the 0% LOB card from Barclaycard.

Egg - BT fee... or maybe not...
I asked to cancel my Egg Green credit card as there didn't seem much point in keeping it now that they charge a BT fee, which is what I told Egg when they phoned me up and tried to talk me out of it.
