Now mint charges BT fee ... Stoozing over?

124»

Comments

  • I read somewhere (most likely Sunday Times Money) that MINT is to stop charging  :o BT fees from 1st March 2005  :) but reduce 0% period to 6 months. Anyone else read this?  :-/
    Yes I did.  The 0% deal is until 1st September 2005, so in other words, you could apply now, pay the fee and receive about 7 months 0% (assuming the card arrives on Feb 1st).  Alternatively, apply on March 1st, don't pay a fee and receive 6 months 0%.

    Additionally, although the fee is 2%, it's capped at £40.
    Mortgage Feb 2001 - £129,000
    Mortgage July 2007 - £0
    Original Mortgage Termination Date - Nov 2018
    Mortgage Interest saved - £63790.60
    ISA Profit since Jan 1st 2015 - 98.2% (updated 1 Dec 2020)

    They should turn it into one of those Mint Adverts.

    I.e. it reminds you off the time they offered a poxy £400 limit.
