    You can hold several MBNA run cards simultaneously, so I see no problem applying for a different one to the one you had last time.

    However, I realise that 1.5% is a cheap BT fee but what if something unforeseen happens and you can't repay within 6 months? Have you considered Egg or a longer MBNA deal? The fees are around 3% but what price peace of mind?

    If the fee really is that important to you, then consider the M&S Sterling travellers loophole which gives 15 months 0% for an effective 1% fee.
