Calling Egg Money eggsperts - some advice please

oscarhugo

Any advice will be mush appreesh -- I have one of the old green egg cards which I used originally for its cashback on spending, then I used it as a mule for stoozing & now I use it for nothing at all - except airport lounges! So I have reduced the credit limit to the bare minimum.

So my question is (since I can't seem to decide from reading other posts) - if I were to apply for (and get accepted... Had lots of refusals but just accepted for Stroud+Swindon Co-op card) an egg MONEY card, could I use that as a mule to get stoozing money into my current a/c WITHOUT a b/t fee (which is why I no longer use the eggy-green as a mule) ? ? ?

Muchas grassy !!!!!! in advance for any & all advice.

The short answer is yes, but...

Apply for Egg Money whilst you are an existing Egg Card holder (with a well-managed account), and the chances are they won't credit search you. Alternatively, just ask them to swap you over onto the Egg Money product.

Yes.
And some stoozers were lucky to get 1% cashback on transfers from Egg Money: Egg Money - Can I BT when there is no B?

You may find the New Egg Money Card - Stoozing Analysis article on the stoozing website useful.

The article itself is over 12 months old now, but the subsequent discussion is pretty much up to date.
