I'd go for it and make the "cancellation" phone call, even if they offer you a much reduced APR, if not an extension, it will "buy" you some time - heave comes to shove and they don't offer you anything then you can always "think about it" and call them back
Quick decisions - not really my cup of tea - but from memory EGG was instant
Good luck!
