Balance Transfer Advice

Options
Hello people

I recently used the 'super balance transfer' option on my EGG card to use the cash a bridging loan until I sold my old car. I bought the new car for £3000 and so far it has been interest free.

The interest free period expires on the 1st May, and so far the old car hasnt sold.

What I want to know if wether I should transfer for the £3000 pretty soon so that I have more time to sell the old car?

Also how do I go about doing a balance transfer and which woul dbe the best card for me to do this? I already have a Barclay Card with £150 on it which I can pay off but I am saving the money at the mo until it NEEDS paying off.

Any advice greatfully appreciated!

Thanks

    I would transfer the debt to another 0% card soon to make sure it goes through in time and to avoid interest. The MBNA group give 9 months and don't charge if you request the BT with the signed credit agreement.

    There are several....I have an Abbey SBT CC, but was refused a Virgin CC, so presume they must be also MBNA

    Giddy up old fella cos the moon is mellow and bright,
    There’s a coyote crying at the moon above,
    Carry me back to the one I love,
    And you old faithful pal of mine.
