balance transfer on closed account

bobbie1

Hi First post.

Egg card have closed my account and did not replace my expired card. never missed a payment in four years but finding in difficult to reduce the balance. opened a barclay card to take advantage of the 0% period but they will not tranfer from an expired card.
Do any credit cards offer 0% balance transfer periods from expired cards. find myself otherwise locked into high interest that will take me years to clear. or any advice would be much appreciated.
Kind regards.

Just make up an expiry date in the near future when xferring to barclaycard.

They dont check and this has been tried, tested, and proven to work.
