    YB - i assume the minpay colomn on the stooze list is for monthly repayment figures - not a 1 off payment?

    Do you know what the current offer is with Egg? i thought i heard 13 months 0% on the tv but looking on the site only appears to be 9 month unless i'm missing something?!

    best regards Huggins

    Yes.

    It's as you've seen on the website (9 months BT's and 6 on purchases IIRC). It's Virgin (MBNA) who have been advertising their 13 month offer a fair bit on TV of late.

    OK thanks again - i'm leaning toward the HSBC card as i'll get 15 months 0% but the montly repayments of 3% are abit steep....Still you can't win them all!Notice in the small print it has a * next to the 0% bit and then states 'the rate you actually receive will depend on our evalutaion of your circumstances etc' ??

    YB - if i apply for more than one card and then decide only to go ahead with 1 of the applications- will this have any affect on future potential lending from the other companies i had applied to previosuly but not taken up (eg. if i reapply 9 months down the line for a BT again)

    I hope this makes sense . Regards Huggins
