BarclayCard Christmas + Q's egg card

allh2k

Looks like christmas is on barclaycard :A

The have changed my limit back to near 3k where as they changed it to 1530 a few months ago.:T

Also Egg sent me a letter so I tried the online joining thing and bam another CC :rotfl:

Anyone got advise about egg I have never used them before. Will I be able to do a super transfer thingie?

I got december 2009 Balance trans and I think it said 5 months 0% on purchases in december this year and next.

The current Egg Card offer is 0% on BT's until 1st Dec 2009. If you can make money on this you'll have earned it! You'll need an aggregate 4.5% savings account just to turn a profit. Good luck!

The purchases duration is much shorter.

The "5 months this year and next" relates to their anniversary BT offer (and is actually next year and the year after).

Full details on their website, and in your T&C's...both of which you should read before using the card.

but i cannot read

Thanks for advise I did actually print the T&C's this time so I might waste 1 hour reading them at work

The cards not for making money its for juggling money i'm doing quite well right now even for christmas time.

Check the fees VERY carefully.

And the length of the interest-free period is too short to justify the fee charged.

Investigate Egg Money: another product from Egg, and since you have been accepted for their card you are likely to be accepted for Egg Money. I find it a far more useful product.

I agree that Egg Money is a very useful product, but unfortunately it is no longer available to new applicants.

OP isn't stoozing though; they're "juggling money", presumably settling overdrafts/loans?

Original Poster, ie you!

It allows you to route 0% cash from BT cards without their own SBT capability to your current account free of any additional charges.
