Suppliers of life of balance cards

bassthing

Hi all, newbie here so apologies if this is covered elsewhere, but I searched and couldn't find it.

Is there a list anywhere of various cards, and the companies behind them?

My reason for asking: I have an MBNA card and a Barclaycard, and am looking for a life-of-balance-transfer card, but that means that I can't apply for either the Leeds or Barclaycard which are mentioned on the main site, as I already have the Barclaycard

I found the Cooperative bank credit card, 9.9% APR for 5 years anyone have any opinions on that (or know who's behind it?):-

Much better than the 31% APR have got me on, methinks...? :mad:

Thanks for reading!:D

Barclaycard currently offer 6.9% Life of Balance for existing customers, its on their website.

Don't think there are many others out there at the moment... Citi have stopped their one which had a pretty good APR... think the two on Martins list are the main 2 that are about...
Point of interest though is that I just had a letter from Barclaycard about getting a new card from them with a 0% transfer offer... I don't know if you can find somewhere to transfer your debt on that card to and then back again?

Wannabe, I'm not so sure about that - if you click Barclaycard's to cards which are available to existing customers, it only lists two - not including the Simplicity card. (Although it does mention Breathe, which I think is the one MrsTine mentions)

According to the LOB table on stoozing.com, the Co-op card is supplied by themselves, so at 9.9% I think this would be next best after Leeds and Simplicity.

log on to your account and click on balance transfer. I've just logged in and clicked on it and it states 6.9% LOB and mine wasn't one of the ones listed either on the main page.

Failing that, give them a ring, it's worth a try.

With a Barclaycard Platinum Simplicity credit card, no handling fee applies
provided you shift your debt within 60 days of opening the card.

When transferring to an existing Barclaycard using a life-of-balance offer,
a 2.50% handling fee applies
