Balance tranfers and rejection

Hi

I was wanting to do a balance tranfer of £1100 to a 0% card ideally. No matter what card I apply for I get rejected. My credit rating is excellent on experian. should i try and apply for a lower interest rate card instead of a 0% one. I currently have an egg card with £1000 on it at a 0% but am unable to transfer anymore to this card due to it being out of the time limit of transferring.

Any help is appreciated

Thanks
Lucy

    Your problem is likely to be that you have made too many rejected applications recently. It would have been better to have posted here after the first rejection to get some advice on the reasons why.

    Has your income reduced? Have you moved? Have you changed jobs? are just some possible reasons for the original rejection.

    It is likely that your only course now is to wait three to six months before trying again.
