Just got my new Barclaycard - 2 questions

Can i and how do i do balance transfers online? The guy who activated the card said he could do it for me or i could do it online so i decided i'd do it myself. But i can't see any option.

And secondly, would i be able to balance transfer some of that amount to my cahoot debit card to clear my £500 overdraft?? Or would this be seen as a transfer to a current account/cash advance?

Thanks,

  • You would have to register for online access to be able to do the transfer online. As far as I'm aware, you can only transfer from a credit card, not directly into a bank account. There are a few out there that will allow this (Virgin being one of them).
