Life of Balance Cards

My existing CC company have offered me a life of balance rate for transfers I want to do.

Do I have to do all the transfers today, or can I do them over the next week or so?

    Why don't you give them a call and ask them?

    Hi Lady S,

    It depends on what the interest rates on your other cards are and whethe rthe limit is high enough to transfer all of your cards on to it. You will probably be able to transfer money onto the card for the next month under that deal, but ask to be sure.

    Hope this helps,

    is your card balance currently zero? if its not, you realise that your payments will reduce the LOB amounts before your current balance which will remain at the 'normal' high rate.

    and obviously do not use the card for purchases
