  • I don't know about Mint, but I'm pretty certain that Egg's Ts&Cs do allow stoozing.

    So the second option under point 2.4, direct bank transfer, does not have the pre-requsite of an existing debt.

    I love this second option under point 2.4, DT :).

    After being refused for 7 0% ccs - I think it was back in May - I have now successfully applied for one ;D.

    However, I have only just got the e-mail and online acceptances, I have yet to receive the credit agreement form.

    When I receive my new Egg card - fingers crossed - I am planning to clear my little Mint debt of £626 and then I am hoping to stooze :D.

    Thank you for your concerns, Rafter :).

    I want to be a good saver, but I find it difficult to control my temptation to spend :o .

    I owe £1,247 more than I have in savings :( .

  • phone Egg

    No need to phone Egg (unless you prefer to do things that way). You can do everything online on the Egg website.

    I need advice as I think I MIGHT MAKE a boob  ;).

    I have just applied for, and got accepted for, an
    Egg card ;D ;D.

    When my Egg card arrives am I correct to assume that I proceed as follows:

    phone Egg and BT from Mint to Egg

    phone Egg and BT to my current a/c and then to savings for stoozing ;D.

    Only if your Mint Card is not 0% on everything for a few months. If it is then you:-

    Contact Mint and request Transfer & Save cheques, write one out to yourself and pay it into your bank account.

    Contact Egg (Do it online, not by phone as that costs money;D) and SBT to your current account

    Transfer money to savings account

    :)
    How do I add a signature?

    Thank you, emdee :).

    When my Egg card comes through I shall transfer from Mint to Egg, because my Mint 0% deal has finished, and then SBT to my current and then savings a/cs.

    I can't wait for my card to arrive ;D :-[.

    I hope your Egg limit is at least as much as your Mint one ;)

    I must be lucky because my Egg limit is 1k more than my Mint one ;)
