in Credit cards
I applied and was accepted for a Capital One CC two days ago so that I could have 0% for purchases until May next year. This was to allow me to get rid of my overdraft on my bank account.
I currently have a 0% on balance transfers with Virgin which is due to run out by my bill in November.
Basically what I'm wondering is how long should I wait before I apply for another credit card so that I can transfer my current 0% to another 0% card ?
Thanks

There are no hard and fast rules. I successfully applied for 4 cards over a 2-day period last week, but I've previously successfully applied for 4 in a lunch hour.
You'll find some guidance (which I obviously chose to ignore!) here...

I wonder if you beat the update on your credit files for the last 3 of 4 searches?0
