How long til I can be a new customer?

Options
I am about to transfer a couple of balances and this will leave 2 of my cards with zero balances and then I will be transfering 2 more onto one of these if I get any B/T offers (I have always in the past when I cleared the balance)

This should leave me with MINT Tesco and HSBC cards with no balance.

Does anyone know how long after I close them I would be able to apply as a new customer?

    For MINT and Tesco it would be 8 months. Not sure about HSBC.
