Citicard applications hicup

I have applied for a card with each issuer to build up a fast stooze pot using Egg money as a mule card.
However I have been accepted for a Citicard platinum and have overlooked the fact I won't be able to BT to egg money as thet are both issued by Citi.
I'm looking for a way to exploit the 13 months at o% .

So here goes - I've also applied for an Abbey zero, so if I BT Abbey to my egg money then BT the balance on Abbey to my Citicard then BT Abbey again to Egg . Does this sound feasable as I have a period of 6 weeks to BT from abbey .

    I've BT'd directly from Egg Money to Citi since the Citigroup takeover (albeit late last year, but nearly 6 months after the takeover, so no recent experience).

    Also, you'll find you only have a month in which to make your Abbey BT's. What's their speed of opening (read sending you the card, PIN, activating) like these days?
  • Thanks for the fast response Yorkshireboy

    I have not received either card yet so am just trying to do a little forward planning.

    I may as well try to BT Citi to egg on my activation call nothing to loose, otherwise is looks just like a timing issue
