Credit Card Help Needed

Hi,
My partner has a Credit Card with Barclays which is now out of the interest free date. I was advised by Barclays I could take out a card with them (Barclays Platinum) and transfer her balance (approx £1,300) to mine interest free for 14 months. I recieved it yesterday and have now been told I cannot do this as they will not transfer from one Barclays Card to another. I have obviously cancelled my card now with them.
Can anyone help me? I want to take out a card (doesnt really matter who with) so I can transfer my partners balance to mine, benefitting from the zero balance. I tried Santander (who my motgage is with) and they advised they cannot transfer another persons credit to my card.
Does anyone know who may be able to help?
Thanks
