Has the MBNA gravy train stopped?

Well for the first time in 5 years I don't have any money at 0% on one of my 4 MBNA cards.
At first it was balance transfers but then they started introducing transfer fees so I just used the 0% purchases.
Now I've just paid back my last card and no more offers are coming in (apart from balance transfers with fees)
Good job M&S have come up trumps!

Spoke too soon.
In the last 3 days I've had 0% purchase offers from 2 MBNA cards and the Virgin (MBNA) card. Purchases made before end of june and 0% til October/July depending on amount spent.
Not sure I can spend £24,000 in 3 months though!0 -

How about paying for a year's electricity in advance? Scottish Power give a 5% discount if you do. You could certainly swallow a couple of grand if you did this for gas as well.We need the earth for food, water, and shelter.
The earth needs us for nothing.
The earth does not belong to us.

thats a thought. I'm with Scottish power already though - not sure how long I'm tied in to my present deal.0
