Which credit cards are part of the same group?

Hi there!

Does anyone know which cards belong to MBNA and HBOS? Am I right in thinking that if you already have a card that belongs to one of these groups you are unable to apply for another one that is part of the same group? Does this also apply if you have previously had a card belonging to these groups a few years ago?

Thanks.

    I'm pretty sure if you have a Virgin card (MBNA) you can still have an MBNA card.

    This table on the stoozing site (which is sponsored by Money Saving Expert)
    should help: ;)

    To help you further, we would need to know exactly which CCs you have at the mo or have held recently.
    People who don't know their rights, don't actually have those rights.
  • Thanks for that link, really helpful. I have previously held a Halifax, Virgin, Natwest and now an egg card (0% due to expire and so looking to move to another 0% balance transfer card which also has a long 0% purchase period).
