Creation Card

Hi all

Looking for some advice if possible. My OH signed up for a creation card about a month ago and at the time their APR was 0% on purchases for 3 months. Having checked the other day it's now 0% APR for 13 months!

Does anyone think they may offer of her that promotion? I personally think there is more chance of seeing some flying pigs, but thinking as we're a new customer who knows?

Any advice?

    Unlikely - she could always try asking, has she used it at all yet?

    Pay it off , call up to cancel and they transfer you to another team. They will
    Don't put your trust into an Experian score - it is not a number any bank will ever use & it is generally a waste of money to purchase it. They are also selling you insurance you dont need.

    Creation have not changed the advertised offers on the Creation card. I think the problem here is that there are 3 different cards; a 0% purchase card and 2 0% BT cards.

    Looks like you applied for the the BT card but are now looking at the info relating to the Purchase card.

    You would have been offered either a 0% on BT's or purchases for a long period with a short 3 month 0% period on the other. The BT cards offer 3 months on purchases but 12 or 17 months on BT's. You still have time to get your balance transfer though if the card was only opened 'about a month ago'.
