Egg BT to current account charging interest immediately

Hi,

I have just been accepted for the egg credit card, and have transfered a sum to my current account.

My credit agreement clearly states:
[FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif] On Purchases put on the Account by 1 November 2010 at an annual rate of 0% fixed until 1 November 2010.

On Transferred Balances put on the Account by 1 November 2010 at an annual rate of 0% fixed until 1 October 2011.
[/FONT]
Yet my first statement is showing interest and no sign of the 3% fee I expected. Have I missed something here?

there is an item on my statement for the BT and a second item for interest

19 Aug 2010 T/FER XXX.XX AT 1.313% INT PER MONTH

Have I missed something, or have they got it wrong?

Thanks

    Looks like they have got it wrong and have not applied the promotional rate.
    Call them and and get it resolved.

    Thank You for taking the time to reply,

    That is what I thought, but puts my mind at ease to get a second opinion. I'll get onto them tomorrow to see what they say.

    Thanks
