nationwide 0% interest card for purchases..

i have a flex account with nationwide which i use mainly for transactions when abroad. i have an abbey credit card now paid off which i no longer use. however at the moment i need some cash flow so i am thinking of getting the nationwide interest free card. what are the conditions to get this. i remember a website which gives this info via martin's website e.g with lloyds tsb you must be earning at least 15K a year. any tips before i go into the branch would be really useful. thanks in advance. really urgent!

    IN branch when you apply for a Flexaccount they usually ask if you would like a credit card during the sign-up process credit check. The fact that you already have an account will help, though RBS runs the card so dont expect high limits. You will need to take id and proof of address.
    You could apply online from your account if you have internet banking, but it will take longer.
    Nationwide staff told me limits go from £500 to £3000, and that my £2850 was good.

    Seem to think £15k was for gold cards and that £10k is ok.


    EDIT
    After googlin look here, http://www.rbs.co.uk/Personal_Finances/Credit_Cards/Classic_Card/default.htm the RBS card is also called Classic, as is Nationwide and requires a £10k min salary, so this should apply to Nationwide too.
