Suckers

Short success story:

My mom received her credit card statement with a leaflet giving a 4.9% balance transfer for life. My credit card (same bank) is not as good as hers, so i didnt get the special offer.

I cheekily phoned up pretending the special offer leaflet came in my statement and that i wanted to do a transfer. They said the offer isnt on my account - I said, 'well you've sent me a leaflet'. They checked again and said the special offer wasnt showing on my account - but been as though i received a leaflet in my statement, they'll have to 'force it through' - RESULT.

Saved me about £50 a month in interest!!!

Good bluffing.

What was the card and offer? It may help others on here.

My moms card was the 'halifax one'.

(Just received all my Alliance and Leceister new bank account stuff - didnt realise you get a credit card and its has 0% until Jan 07 - bonus.)
