    What about the sainsbury card? They also quote "no annual fee or balance transfer fee"

    CHIHUAHUA, Hi again CH. (see your still on line). Ive just applied by phone (08003896299) for the Halifax smart card and been accepted. Up to 10 days for paper work then further 10 days for card. I thought my stoozing days were over.

    John.


    Do you know what time they close?
    Was the application over the phone difficult?
    And is it definitely FREE BT?

    Hi again CHIHUAHUA, the application for Smart Card was quick and easy (5 minutes, no difficult questions. Myself I think that a 3rd application may just be a step to far, but you never know.
