hi
Just a quick query I wanted to throw out to you educated peeps out there. I have arrangements to pay off my cards some have reduced interest some not. To my suprise this morning I got a letter from Barclays saying that they were putting me on a 0% rate for 6 months which I was pleasantly suprised at. My question is as far as the overpayments go am I better hitting them off of Barclays as the 0% only lasts 6 months and then hoping that I get most of it down so that they might accept a balance transfer for a lower rate than I have got on other cards or..carry on paying the one with the higher APR I really don't know which is better
thanks in advance

I'll give you a bump for the morning crew, I'm afraid I have no experience in such matters, I would have no idea how Barclaycard would view it. Sorry0
