Hi,
At the minute i have a virgin card with £3000 on that i want to balance transfer. I also have an egg card but as i'm not a new customer they wont give me a new LONG transfer. I think i used halifax card within the last 12months (used to balance transfer, payed it off and then didnt use it. so they cancelled lol). Also at the minute i have £2000 on a hsbc credit card that lasts into 2010.

What recommendations do u have for shifting the money off the virgin card and into a long balance transfer which i wont touch?

Any help would be appriecated, Thanks

    So the best way is if i have a anneversary with egg coming up or just get a new card? also do i need to be careful which 1s? as in MBNA cards.

    So looking at that list the Abbey card would be a good choice for me looking at that list?
