balance transfers?

rachrob

Hi, Have a mastercard with about £600 on it. Recently accepted for capital one with 0% balance transfers and purchases til May 09. If I ring capital one and ask to balance transfer mastercard debt to them, there is 3% fee, which is fine. However, if, when my mastercard statement comes and asks me to pay, can I pay with the capital one card and not pay a fee? Confused!

Any

It will still be a balance transfer.
If they let you pay with credit card in the first place.

You can't pay off one credit card with another credit card, unless it's an actual balance transfer (so no way to get around the 3% fee).

Oh, I see, well I can't see why they wouldn't let me pay it off with credit card, they just ask for card number dont they? I've paid my next account off with the mastercard and it's been accepted with no problems. I'll give it a whirl and see what happens, either way I've got 0% transfers and purchases. Thankyou x
