  • hi clio,
    me too, i currently have a 0% BT running on a mint card that is due to end next feb, but in my original T&C when opening the account I have a bonus BT at 0% for a further 6 months on BT completed during April 2009. I wonder if that commitment is going to be honored by Mint in light of all the cutting back thats going on.
    Also I suppose one has to look ahead and see that BT are going to get more difficult as time goes on,
    I mean with RBS, Mint, Natwest and Barclaycard being the same group , BT between them will be a no-go, then we have Halifax and Alliance/leciester both being Santanare, wonder who will be controlling the cards of that group next year, with all these mergers in the pipe line its going to be hard to find 2 cards that are not of the same group :(

    now there's a new rumour for you ;)

    (YB - never heard a Yorkshireman say "pardon" before - are you an imposter or just being polite? ;))
    You've never seen me, but I've been here all along - watching and learning...:cool:
