Transferring Mother's balance

in Credit cards
My Mum has got herself in a bit of debt and it is sitting on her Barclaycard at a stupid APR. Would I be able to transfer her balance onto my empty Barclaycard and benefit from the 6.9% LOB offer

No, but only because your card is Barclaycard too. If you had a card from another provider, you would be able to transfer the balance.0

Yes, but what rate is your Egg at? It may be best to keep it there for a while if less than the Barclaycard rate.
However, and please dont take this the wrong way, lending money to family and friends is a very touchy subject. No disrespect to your mum, but the debt will become yours, and should anything untoward happen you have no comeback so think it through carefully0 -
yes it is possible as they only ask for the long 16 digit numberI owe £3233 @ 0%0
