M&S wanted to keep my custom by offering me 0% on Purchases for 7 Months (Thats against their usual 18.9%!!!!)

Congratulations & thanks for the tip

May I ask did you request closure or simply ask if there were any offers on your account?

I had no luck with M&S so closed the account.

Also failed to get anything from MBNA too. He pleaded with me to keep the account open as I'm a "valued customer" and they would offer me something in 9mths time but I told him to close it to lower my available credit and I'd take my chances on re-applying on 9mths time. Didn't think he was ever going to take no for an answer!

Can't be that valued a customer if they refuse to help me out when I need it now! lol

Hey there, asked to close the account. Got a callback from their "retentions" department.

No, not to my knowledge...

If you are not financially linked then her debt has no relation to your credit score.

About 3-4 years I think but I've already had 3 BT deals with them and never spent anything on the card so wasn't really surprised they wouldn't offer me another one yet.

Got the following from HSBC thru post:

0% BT with 2.9% fees for 9 months from date of transfer. Good for BT done till end of June.

I don't know if this is the right place to post but my question is can I apply for a card (in this case Virgin) even though Im an "additional" card holder on my wifes Virgin card (0% deal is coming to an end). Thanks.
