Can I balance transfer the same card to the same card twice?

I recently balance transferred my Virgin Card to my RBS one. Am I allowed to balance transfer my new balance on the Virgin card to the RBS one, for a second time?

Many thanks.

    Credit limit permitting, you can transfer as many balances as you like.

    Note: if this is a 0% for 15 months deal, only BT requests made in the first 3 months from account opening qualify for the promo rate.
    People who don't know their rights, don't actually have those rights.

    Great stuff, thanks! I think if I BT now I may just keep within the 3 months, I think...

    If you're not sure, I'd give card services a call. If you miss the deadline, your BT could get quite expensive ;)

  • There might be another charge for transferring another balance - the fee is 2.9% (min £5) of the amount being transferred if it is a platinum credit card you are transferring to.
    Anything that I do say, is strictly my opinion :p
