MBNA CC stooz check?

Hi guys.

For my next stooz card i'm looking at one of the MBNA cards with 9 months 0% to move some of my egg 15k. These are either virgin, A+L or Abbey. During the online application for all of these it asks for all your other card debts. Is this to check on your stoozing? Will telling them i've got 15k on egg and 5k on mint adversely effect my application or credit limit?

    They know it anyway from your credit history, unless it is one of the ones that don't get reported. I think Egg and Mint both do, though.

    It is not a stoozing test, they just want to know about your debts in relation to your income.

    Not telling them about one they can see on your credit history might affect your application if they think you are trying to hide it.
