    Thanks, I thought that may be case.

    A troll is the name for an internet presence who is deliberately attempting to cause controversy or annoy other users in one way or another. They often awake in the early hours of the morning ;)
  • so with the confusion ive got, if i transfer £1350 off my Virgin cc onto my new lloyds cc (1.5k limit) 3% BT fee =£40.50, then spend £100 with the card, (taking that to £1490.50) and pay that off within 3 months, will my BT stay at 0% for 14months

    im just confused with how do you pay off the £100 u spend, how and what stops the money u pay off, be taken from the money you have transfered on the card

    You won't be able to pay the purchases off without paying the balance transfer off first.
  • so how do you get 14 months 0% intrest on the BT?

    You purchase something for £100. This attracts 0% for 3 months. This also unlocks 14 months at 0% for balance transfers. However, after the first 3 months the purchases will start attracting interest charges but the balance transfer will not until the 14 months is up.

    Simple.
  • so on the £100 purchase will gain intrest and not the money i transfer on the BT?
