Best Super Balance Transfer card @ 0%?

Is there a credit card currently available that will allow me to balance transfer into my current account at 0% for 9 months or so?
Am currently using £1500 of my overdraft (@ 0% for 12 months) but when my salary is paid into the account it won't tip it back into the black and I'm worried that I'll be charged because of this.
Any recommendations are greatly received :)

  • Just had a read of the SBT article, seems the Abbey card will be just fine for what I'm after so sorry for wasting your time if you've read this!

    Welcome to MSE and I would have read it anyway.
    Also consider other cards that allow a SBT ,MNBA,A&L,Virgin,MINT,Egg.
    You should be able to get what you want from one of those.

    We just took out a Lloyds tsb card for 9 months at 0%

    Ive just got the Lloyds TSB 0% 9 months. No fee if you apply in the branch.
  • Thanks for the other suggestions, there's a Lloyds TSB bank a lot nearer to my house than an Abbey so that'll be the one to go for. Have to wonder in Saturday morning and see what they can offer me. Thanks again :)

    Yes the Lloyds TSB is fee-free for BT in 1st 6 weeks, but this isnt what was asked. You cant SBT on Lloyds, so you cant pay into your current account, for this you need Egg, Virgin etc. Best bet is egg money alongside LTSB etc to use as mule. But reports are that LTSB are very tight for non-Lloyds customers so look at other 0% cards aswell, but you still need a mule card
