Monumnet Visa Platinum - 0% BT & Purchases

cloud_dog

Just received a "pre-selected" mailshot for the Monumnet Visa Platinum CC (part of Barclays) with 0% on BT and purchases until November 05.

Visa Paltinum min repayment 2%. Be aware that in the small 0print they also refer to the Platinum Visa card with a 3% min repayment.

Might apply for this and BT my Egg balance to it then re-SBT on my egg (still in my original 5 month period) ;D

This organisation was in the St George's Centre in Harrow today with application forms.

Its not the minimum repayments youve got to worry about on the Premium Visa, its the 2.5% charge on balance transfers !!!

Two cards - Premium VISA and Visa Platinum !!
Premium Visa
2.5% balance transfer fee

Visa Platinum
2% balance transfer fee ,

Both apparently capped at £50

I would look at other cards first then maybe give this one a shot.

It's a lot of cobblers of course, but the man from Monument claimed that their fees on BTs were [in his words] "negotiable". Whether they are as a new customer or not is another matter. But you might try that line out on Monument if you wish.

[The card is still good for making puchases however]

They all seem to be turning into 0% purchase cards, used to be pretty rare now starting to match 0% balance transfers.

Me thinks the credit card companies are gettign wise

I got one the mailshots as well,

But I've been told that 'pre-selected' is just sales talk and it doesn't guarantee that u'll be accepted.. :-/
