Abbey Zero - Still available?

darkcloudi

Just wondering is the Abbey Zero still available with no fees as I came across this site: http://www.santandergbm.com

which appears to have a link to the card

http://www.santandergbm.com/csgs/Satellite?c=GSDetalleProducto&cid=1210619166755&idParent=1210619162360&pagename=Abbey%2FGSDetalleProducto%2FGS_DetProducto

As I am looking for a card with no balance transfer fees. The site appears to look valid.

Thanks

What makes you think it's valid? It looks like a complete copy of the Abbey site, and makes no attempt to distinguish itself from Abbey. More likely to be a scam than genuine

Its a genuine site belonging to the parent company.

Thats what I thought - not sure if moneysavingexpert can look into it as it would be good to have a fees free credit card as it doesn't appear to appear in the list of credit cards on the moneysavingexpert fees free list.

Abbey are only offering the 15 months balance transfer card. The Zero card is not on sale anymore.

Zero was stopped about 2-3 months ago and then for the final 2 months of applications it was via branch only.

There are no longer any cards offering BT's without fees, unless you can negotiate something for yourself.

But if santander website is a website that belongs to Abbey and we were to apply through there shouldn't they still satisfy the conditions of the abbey zero card?

Got mine in March - perhaps applied end of Feb? Can't remember. £8100 limit - jolly useful and could BT fee free almost up to the limit.

It had disappeared off their website and a nearby Abbey had taken down all the posters. But I found a link via a google. It took me into their main site so I reckoned I was safe. As I stepped through it, I think one page was a bit nervy (think I got a security warning). But anyway all was fine.

I suppose they had de-promoted it but at that time had failed to remove all the functionality from their site. Just tried again - but could not reproduce what I did.

That santandergbm Zero link ends up putting you back into the Abbey main site to process an application. So I would certainly have a go... but I would check that it is still the Zero card you're applying for. On the initial application page I saw, there was no mention of Zero - but maybe it comes back in later.

I'll reiterate, you CANNOT get a ZERO card as it's no longer available.

Anyone can put whatever they want in that summary - maybe a well organised fraudster.
